West Ham have turned down the chance to sign Robin van Persie even though he was willing to take a pay cut, according to the Daily Mail.
The Hammers reportedly held talks over a move for the former Arsenal and Manchester United marksman after he was offered to them by Fenerbahce.
But West Ham decided against following negotations up with a formal offer, despite Van Persie being willing to reduce his wages by more than half to return to the Premier League.
