West Ham have reportedly turned down an offer in the region of £2million from Gremio for Michail Antonio.
As reported by The Athletic, the Brazilian side are keen on the Hammers striker, who scored six Premier League goals last term.
Antonio is set to enter the final year of his contract and could be part of a massive clearout at West Ham under Julen Lopetegui.
The striker is considering his options and also has interest from clubs in Saudi Arabia and the MLS.
Antonio joined West Ham nine years ago on the heels of a meteoric rise from non-league side Tooting & Mitcham United, after stints at Reading, Sheffield Wednesday and Nottingham Forest. The 34-year-old has proved to be a success in East London, scoring 82 goals in 308 appearances.
He is West Ham’s all-time top scorer in the Premier League with 67 goals.
Antonio is currently on international duty with Jamaica, who have been knocked out of Copa America after back-to-back defeats.
He was on the scoresheet as the Reggae Boyz suffered a 3-1 defeat against Ecuador.
Antonio was keen to stress that he is working towards being in a better place and is keen to continue his career for another ‘three years’.
Last month, Antonio shared that he is undergoing therapy after falling out of love with football to the extent that he once hoped that he would be sidelined with injury.
He stressed that he is working towards being in a better place and is keen to continue his career for another ‘three years’.
