# These West Ham fans want their club to sell Manuel Lanzini this summer

Following a loan spell, Manuel Lanzini joined West Ham on a permanent deal back in 2016 but if a certain section of the club’s fanbase gets their wish, then the Argentine will be leaving the London Stadium in the summer of 2020.

The 27-year-old, who is earning a salary of [£70,000-a-week](https://www.spotrac.com/epl/west-ham-united-f.c/manuel-lanzini-23126/), has found himself on the bench for West Ham’s [previous three league matches](https://www.transfermarkt.co.uk/manuel-lanzini/leistungsdaten/spieler/135853), with David Moyes deciding to use his other attacking options as he looks to save the club from relegation.

Lanzini has played [129 times](https://www.transfermarkt.co.uk/manuel-lanzini/leistungsdaten/spieler/135853) for West Ham since his arrival, and he did miss a significant amount of time with a [serious knee injury](https://www.goal.com/en/news/lanzini-to-miss-world-cup-after-knee-ligament-injury/21dvczyjodjz158u35hot4qgs) that he picked up whilst he was away on international duty before the 2018 World Cup.

Whilst one West Ham supporter, twitter user [@WHUFC\_News\_6](https://twitter.com/WHUFC_News_6/status/1234730199700381696?s=20), said that he would hold onto the player if he was in charge at the London Stadium, plenty of others seem keen to let the Argentinian leave.
