West Ham are set to be repaid £3.6million after winning a court battle against their London Stadium owners, a report has claimed.

The Hammers, who moved to the venue in 2016 after it was used for the London Olympics four years prior, were obliged to make a £6.5m payment as part of their lease agreement with E20 Stadium, the body used by publicly-owned company London Legacy Development Corporation (LLDC) to manage the stadium.

A London Assembly member branded West Ham's initial lease agreement the 'deal of the century' as it benefitted the club to such an extent.
