Lens midfielder Seko Fofana has just broken his silence amidst strong links with West Ham United.
Hammers boss David Moyes allegedly wants to bring the 27-year-old to the London Stadium this summer.

We think Fofana would be an unbelievable signing for West Ham, what with his power, pace and energy.
Tomas Soucek has looked really leggy this season already and is totally out of sorts.
If the Hammers are to compete on all fronts this term, Moyes desperately needs to add some more power and athleticism to his engine room.
Could the Scot sign Fofana? It seems as though we might have an offer in for him…
The 27-year-old has been speaking to Canal+ via GFFN, and he admitted that there are offers in for him at the moment:
“There are five days left to think and see what decision to make. As long as I’m on the pitch, I am happy because I know I will be able to express myself and give the maximum. I don’t know what tomorrow will bring. We will see. Everything is possible in these last five days. There are offers, some possibilities. I need to think about them with my entourage. The club knows what I expect. Today I’m just enjoying the moment.”
Fofana is the kind of player who could take us to another level entirely.
The Lens ace could be available for as little as €30 million (£25.4 million) this summer according to Give Me Sport.
He has the ability to get up and down the pitch and always contributes both inside the final third and defensively.
The Ivory Coast international bagged eight goals in 38 Ligue 1 games for Lens last season. During those outings, he averaged 45.8 passes per game and recorded a completion rate of 89.8% (Who Scored).
The 27-year-old has been described as a midfielder creator, dynamo and destroyer by GFFN.
Seko Fofana is an elite midfielder and would undoubtedly be tremendous for West Ham.
Let’s hope that the Hammers are one of the clubs who have a bid in for him.
