West Ham United fans react to reports that Jeremy Ngakia will not sign deal to see out Premier League season

According to The Guardian, West Ham United right-back Jeremy Ngakia will not sign a contract extension to see out the Premier League season at the London Stadium.

The 19-year-old’s scholarship deal ends at the end of this month, and the Hammers were looking to extend it till the end of the season with action resuming on June 17 following almost three months of break.

From the look of things, Ngakia is set to walk away on June 30 as he doesn’t want the short-term extension.

West Ham had earlier offered the academy graduate a new multi-year deal last month worth £5,000-a-week, but he turned it down and could have played his last game for the club.
