Mobido Maiga is set to leave West Ham this summer after the striker's representatives met with French giants Marseille in order to negotiate a summer move for the Mali international, according to reports coming from France today.
The 25 year old has made just four starts for the Hammers this season and was linked with an immediate return to France in January with both Marseille and Bordeaux being credited with an interest in the pacy forward.
Maiga also found himself in hot water with the club after returning home late after the African Cup of Nations in February, and the £4m has failed to tie down a regular place in Sam Allardyce's side.
With an offer in the region of £13m reported to have been made for Liverpool striker Andy Carroll, Allardyce knows he has to trim his squad in order to stay on the right side of the Premier League's Financial Fair play regulations coming in next season and Maiga could be the next striker to leave the club, after Carlton Cole was shown the door earlier this week.
