Michail Antonio has spoken candidly about the breakdown of his relationship with West Ham United following a serious car accident in December 2024, revealing that the club made him feel discarded during one of the most difficult periods of his life.
The striker, who spent a decade at the east London club, was in the final months of his contract when the crash left him with a severe leg fracture. His account of what followed paints a picture of a club that moved swiftly to distance itself from him.
A contract offer he could not accept
Antonio told FourFourTwo that former West Ham chairman Karren Brady offered him a contract worth £5,000 per week — with the under-21 side, not the first team. He rejected it outright.
