Dimitri Payet has claimed that he has had no contact with Arsene Wenger about a move to Arsenal, but believes that it would be "fun" to play for the Gunners.

The West Ham United midfielder has been rumoured to be on the North London club's radar, despite Wenger suggesting earlier this year that he had previously passed up on the opportunity to sign him.

"I read that Wenger considers me the missing piece of the Arsenal's game, but he's never told me that," the France international told RMC.

"We conceded five or six at home against them. When you see them playing, as a technical player, you could only have fun in that team. They're candidates for the title every year."

West Ham are currently in the bottom half of the Premier League table and sit just five points clear of the relegation zone.
