# Everton have a €10m bid rejected for West Ham target Ghezzal

Everton have seen a €10m bid rejected by Lyon for winger Rachid Ghezzal this summer, who is also wanted by West Ham and Arsenal according to [Goal](https://www.goal.com/en-gb/news/2892/transfer-zone/2016/08/12/26455192/lyon-reject-evertons-10m-ghezzal-bid?utm_source=dlvr.it&utm_medium=twitter).

The Algerian is yet to sign a new contract with the Ligue 1 club and with his current deal expiring next summer he has been heavily linked with a move away from the club.

Today, manager Bruno Genesio confirmed that the 24-year-old has been demoted to the reserve side where he will continue training until his future is resolved.

West Ham have made two bids worth £6.2m and £7m for Ghezzal this summer, both turned down with Lyon looking for nearer €15m (£13m) to part ways with the attacker this summer.

Lyon are hopeful that he will sign a contract extension with the club this summer but Ghezzal has so far rejected all offers from Lyon because they are not up to his demands.
