Toulouse have reportedly rejected an £8.5m bid from West Ham United for Martin Braithwaite.
The Hammers are widely expected to sign a new striker in the January transfer window due to Simone Zaza's unsuccessful loan spell from Juventus and an injury to Diafra Sakho.
According to RMC, West Ham launched an £8.5m bid for the Denmark international, but Toulouse quickly turned down the interest as they are not prepared to sell their captain for under £10m.
Braithwaite, who joined his current club from Danish outfit Esbjerg FB in the summer of 2013, has scored seven times in 16 Ligue 1 appearances during the 2016-17 campaign.
The 25-year-old enjoyed his best ever scoring season last term - netting 13 times in 40 appearances, including 11 goals in the top flight of French football.
