Liverpool FC Target Loic Remy Set For Talks With Nice

Nice president Gilbert Stellardo has revealed he will hold a meeting today with Loic Remy as the hitman bids to complete a move to England.

Liverpool, Tottenham and West Ham are all reported to be interested in the France international although the Hammers appear to be in pole position.

However, the sticking point remains West Ham’s desire to pay any transfer fee in four annual installments, while the Ligue 1 club is asking for the cash upfront.

“For the moment it’s the same status quo, but if Liverpool make an offer things will be done swiftly,” Stellardo said.

“The amount (offered by West Ham) suits me but not the payment method.

“West Ham wants to buy Loic because they think he could rapidly be worth 10million euros more if he plays in England. They don’t want us to pay the full sum all at once.”

Remy is one of France’s hottest talents and the 23-year-old scored 15 goals in 33 appearances last season.
