Marseille have asked about the availability of West Ham winger Said Benrahma.

The 28-year-old also has interest from Lyon, Fulham and Brentford, with the Hammers looking to bring in another left-sided forward.

Benrahma has had a difficult time of things during his time at West Ham, finding it difficult to secure a regular starting spot under David Moyes, who blanked him as he walked down the tunnel after getting sent off in his side’s FA Cup defeat to Bristol City on Tuesday.

The Algerian, who was left out of his side’s squad for the African Cup of Nations this winter after falling out with his manager in October, kicked out at Joe Williams early in the second half of the game.

He could now be set to leave the club, with it unclear if he will play for the Hammers again, with his suspension set to run into next month.

Benrahma has made 141 appearances for West Ham since joining for £20million from Brentford in 2021.

Over a third of those appearances have been from the substitutes’ bench, however, though the club are hoping to recoup the money the spent on the 28-year-old in any sale.

Benrahma has started just four games in the Premier League this season and is yet to score, providing just one assist in that time.

West Ham are open to letting him leave, with teams from the Saudi Pro League also enquiring about his availability in recent months.
