West Ham United set to offer utility man Michail Antonio a new contract which could double his wages

Michail Antonio is in line for a new deal at West Ham as a reward for turning into one of Slaven Bilic’s most reliable stars this season.

The London club are aware of interest in Antonio, with Premier League leaders Chelsea among those who have looked at the versatile 26-year-old.

Antonio’s current contract sees him paid about £35,000 per week but that is to significantly increase if he agrees to sign. It could double to £70,000, depending on talks.
