West Ham forward Michail Antonio pens new contract

West Ham United forward Michail Antonio has signed a new contract that commits him to the club until 2023.

The 30-year-old Englishman has scored three goals in seven Premier League appearances this season.

After the restart of the 2019-20 campaign in June, Antonio netted eight times in six league games as the Hammers avoided relegation.

His 39 goals put him fourth on the London club's all-time list of Premier League scorers.

"I got eight goals in one month, so I've got two and half years now to see how many more I can get and how far I can get," said Antonio, who joined West Ham from Nottingham Forest in September 2015.

"I definitely want to get to the 50-goal mark in the Premier League and see how I can go on from there."
