Manuel Lanzini will wait to see how the 2019-20 season goes before deciding whether to commit to a new deal at West Ham United.
The Argentine’s contract expires next summer and the Hammers will be desperate to tie him down after he massively improved Manuel Pellegrini’s team on his return from injury in February.
