Dimitri Payet's agent has claimed an interview with his client published in The Sun stating he would "100 per cent" stay at West Ham was fabricated.
According to the English newspaper, the France star told them that despite speculation linking him with the likes of Real Madrid he was looking forward to playing in the Olympic Stadium next season.
But Jacques Olivier Auguste, who represents Payet, has described the quotes as "pure inventions in the imagination of a journalist".
"I am surprised by this information because Dimitri has not done an interview with any media outlet," he told Daily Mercato.
"The only thing that is certain is that he is enjoying his holiday, that he deserves, and he is licking the wounds caused by the Euro 2016 final defeat.
"So he is only thinking about recharging at the moment. These declarations are pure inventions in the imagination of a journalist. This deserved a response."
