Michail Antonio is likely to leave West Ham when his contract expires at the end of this month. The forward has been working towards a return to action after sustaining a broken leg in a car crash six months ago but he is yet to reach an agreement over a new deal with the club.
West Ham have supported Antonio’s recovery and have offered him a short-term deal on a reduced salary, with further pay included based on appearances. The 35-year-old forward, whose wage is around £90,000 a week, wants more guaranteed money and a longer-term contract. The impasse means Antonio, who scored only once in 15 games before his crash last season, is moving towards the exit.
