Graham Potter seems to have confirmed that Michail Antonio leaves West Ham.
Antonio’s contract expired this summer and West Ham assessed the opportunity to offer it a new agreement.
The 35 -year -old man is trying to go up his career and break his leg in a car accident in December.

But Potter said that Antonio was not in his plans next season after the Hammers finished the signature of Callum Wilson during a free transfer.
Asked that Antonio would be part of his team this season, Potter simply said: “No.”
Potter also said that Lucas Paqueta signed up in West Ham after being eliminated accusations of stains fixing.
Paqueta was authorized this week to be deliberately reserved to assign a Paris market.
The Brazilian had been strongly linked to a move to Manchester City when the FA began his investigation.

“You never know with certainty because anything can happen in the window with anyone,” Potter said in front of West Ham’s friendly match against Bournemouth in America on Sunday.
“But the news is incredibly positive. If she had gone in the other direction, there would have been a completely different question of questions.
“Lucas is happy and committed. He is an important person in the locker room and at the club and we love him. We just want to help him enjoy his football.
“You can imagine at a personal level for him, having to fight these allegations was an incredible challenge for him. It was a really difficult period of his life and his career.
“It is a credit for him and his family and all those who supported him that he has passed.”
