Michail Antonio admitted on Thursday he is in talks to leave West Ham, but his club are reluctant to sell their only fit senior striker amid injuries to Gianluca Scamacca and Danny Ings.
The 32-year-old has been considering a January exit with the club’s all-time Premier League top scorer sparking interest from Everton and Wolves, among others in the market for a goalscorer.
Antonio has been a loyal servant to West Ham since 2015, joining from Nottingham Forest for £7million.
