# Virals: Michail Antonio takes teammates on celebratory European tour

[West Ham](https://readwestham.com/2021/05/23/virals-journalist-duo-confirm-west-ham-interest-in-patson-daka/) striker [Michail Antonio](https://readwestham.com/2021/05/20/virals-michail-antonio-destroys-declan-rice-on-twitter/) has taken his Hammers teammates on a celebratory tour after they secured European football for next season.

Pablo Fornals grabbed a [brace](https://www.whufc.com/news/articles/2021/may/23-may/goals-west-ham-united-3-0-southampton) and Declan Rice rounded off the scoring as David Moyes’ side wrapped up [sixth place in the Premier League](https://www.premierleague.com/tables) with a [3-0 victory](https://www.bbc.co.uk/sport/football/57132161) over Southampton on Sunday.

The Irons will now [head into the Europa League](https://www.dailymail.co.uk/sport/football/article-9609997/West-Ham-3-0-Southampton-David-Moyes-secure-sixth-place-Europa-League.html) for 2021/22 having narrowly avoided relegation last season.

Those in place at the London Stadium were [joyous at the final whistle](https://www.independent.co.uk/sport/football/west-ham-pablo-fornals-premier-league-europa-league-southampton-b1852487.html) and can look forward to a European adventure in the coming months.

But, Antonio wasn’t in the mood for waiting to see his teammates taking in the sights around the continent and took to [Twitter](https://twitter.com/Michailantonio/status/1396536710184509440) to begin the festivities early.

The 30-year-old has been an inspirational factor in the improvement of the Hammers, netting [10 league goals and registering five assists](https://www.transfermarkt.co.uk/michail-antonio/leistungsdaten/spieler/104124) in 26 appearances.

### READ WEST HAM VERDICT

Antonio as tour guide it would seem.

The staff and players should rightly [revel in the success of the season](https://www.whufc.com/news/articles/2021/may/23-may/west-ham-united-qualify-uefa-europa-league-final-day-win-over) for some time to come.

However, Moyes will no doubt already have turned his own attentions to next term – with just who should be in the [squad](https://www.whufc.com/teams/first-team/squad) for the sightseeing trips firmly at the forefront of the Scotsman’s thinking.

If the Hammers are going to compete on all fronts there will need to be additions to the playing ranks, as proven by the [dip in form](https://www.whufc.com/fixtures/first-team/fixtures-and-results) during the run-in.
