# West Ham star is not leaving the London Stadium this summer

Despite reports that the player is unhappy at the club, it now appears that Michail Antonio will remain at West Ham beyond this summer.

[Sky Sports](https://www.skysports.com/football/news/11685/10854665/michail-antonio-is-going-nowhere-this-summer-west-ham-source) are suggesting the club are confident about the prospect of keeping the Englishman this summer.

A source close to the club reportedly told Sky Sports: “Antonio will be going nowhere.

“He’s got five years left on his current contract and he’s a valued member of Slaven \[Bilic’s\] side.

“He’s got the chance to double his money but if it’s not a good enough offer for him then he will have to stay on what he’s on.”

Contract disputes were thought to be at the centre of the problems, as well as reports that suggested the player was unhappy with the club’s treatment of his recent injury.

Antonio has been linked with a move to Chelsea this summer after impressing at the London Stadium this season.

The former Nottingham Forest player is currently the club’s top goalscorer with nine goals to his name, two more than Andy Carroll, his nearest competitor.

It’s been quite the season for Antonio, who has featured at right-back, right-wing as well as playing up front for a stint this season.
