West Ham chairman David Gold has taken a firm stance on selling the club’s players and has reiterated on social media that he will not sell Dimitri Payet to Arsenal.

The Hammers are on the brink of an exciting new era, with a progressive season seer to be followed by a move to the Olympic Stadium this summer.

Ahead of 2016-17, Slaven Bilic’s men are expected to be busy in the transfer market and look to propel themselves into the top four reckoning on a perennial basis.

Holding onto key playmaker Dimitri Payet will be one of the London club’s priorities this summer, with a host of leading European clubs said to be circling around the France international.

However, Gold has answered a Hammers fans who quizzed him about the potential for selling the 29-year-old to Arsenal and remains defiant that the former Marseille man will stay with the club.

West Ham are still in the running for a top four berth this season and face Arsenal this weekend at home.
