West Ham United have reportedly joined Queens Park Rangers in the pursuit for Marseille midfielder Mathieu Valbuena.
The 29-year-old, who impressed during this summer's World Cup with France, has been linked with a move to Loftus Road this summer.
Valbuena, who has made it clear that he wishes to leave the Stade Velodrome, has turned down a move to Russian side Dynamo Moscow.
West Ham and QPR have now opened negotiations with Marseille over a potential £6.5m move to London, according to The Guardian.
Valbuena made 39 appearances for the Ligue 1 outfit last season.
