West Ham willing to sell winger

West Ham are open to selling Michail Antonio this summer but will demand in excess of £15m for his signature, according to reportsAntonio is a fan-favourite at West Ham but has struggled to stay fit for prolonged periods over the last 12 months.

New West Ham manager Manuel Pellegrini is reportedly impressed with the 28-year-old’s attitude but the Hammers are still willing to cash in.

The east London outfit are closing in on deals for Andriy Yarmolenko and Felipe Anderson, which would dispense with the need of keeping Antonio at the club. Antonio was limited to just 21 appearances in all competitions last season and only managed a return of three goals and one assist in that time.

Crystal Palace previously earmarked Antonio as a potential replacement for Wilfried Zaha, but the Eagles priority is to secure the long-term services of their star man.

In the last two Premier League campaigns, only Manuel Lanzini (88) has completed more dribbles than Antonio (75) for West Ham.
