Dimitri Payet has reportedly passed his medical at Marseille as his move away from West Hamedges closer.
Payet is expected to sign his deal on Sunday evening after his £25million move back to his former club is completed.
The fee for the playmaker could rise to around £30million with bonuses.
Payet travelled to France on Sunday morning after he was given permission by the Hammers to complete his medical.
And he took to Twitter to confirm he was homeward bound with a picture as he prepared to board a private jet.
Before the move is confirmed, West Ham first want Payet - who has insisted his desire to leave is not about money - to prove as much by giving back a £1m bonus payment he was handed back in September.
Should that happen he could to be presented as a Marseille player as quickly as tomorrow in France.
The payment was made in October in a bid to appease Payet after he returned from his Euro2016 commitments with France unsettled and wanting to leave.
But he made it clear earlier this month that he no longer wanted to play or train with the Hammers. Boss Slaven Bilic went public on the row after Payet refused to budge on his stance.
Defending the Frenchman’s, his camp are insistent that he only wants to leave for family reasons and that he is not motivated by finance.
