DIMITRI PAYET has shown off an incredible body transformation just four months after joining Vasco da Gama.
The Premier League cult hero joined the Brazilian outfit in August 2023 after leaving Marseille.
Payet, 36, has played 17 times for the club, scoring two goals and assisting one.
Recent pictures have shown the Frenchman looking in fantastic shape.
Payet looks to have better fitness than even in his fantastic 18 months at West Ham.
The midfielder also shared a snap of himself in training with the caption “loading”.
The snaps have even got Hammers’ supporters wanting him back at the London Stadium on social media.
One fan posted: “Get him back for that last dance!”
A second commented: “I will love it.”
A third wrote: “Like most ‘one last dance signings’ this makes little to no sense but I NEED it in my life.”

A fourth said: “Six-month deal to cover for [Lucas] Paqueta whilst he’s injured?”
Another added: “Wish we could’ve kept Payet.”
Payet joined West Ham from Marseille in 2015 and inspired the club to a 7th-place finish.
The mercurial winger starred with his skill moves and deadly free-kick ability.
However, in January 2017 he forced his way out of the club and returned to Marseille.
