West Ham target Eric Mouloungui has stated that he doesn't want to leave current club Nice.

The 27-year-old was recently the subject of a failed £2m offer from the Hammers, although the club are expected to lodge an improved bid for the player, whose contract expires next summer.

“I do not want to leave, but it is true that staying in my situation is complicated,” he told Nice’s official website.

“I talked with the president, and we want to find the best solution for the team and me.

“In football, everything is fast, but today I am 100% Nice."

The Gabon international has spent three seasons at the Ligue 1 club.
