West Ham striker Antonio "stable" after road traffic accident

No details of the player's condition about the incident were initially given by the club, as their statement read: "West Ham United can confirm striker Michail Antonio has today been involved in a road traffic accident."

But the club have now issued a new update confirming that the striker is in "stable condition" via their socials. "West Ham United can confirm that Michail Antonio is in a stable condition following a road traffic accident this afternoon in the Essex area," the east London side state.

West Ham added: "Michail is conscious and communicating and is currently under close supervision at a central London hospital. At this difficult time, we kindly ask everyone to respect the privacy of Michail and his family. The club will make no further comment this evening, but will issue a further update in due course".

The London-born Jamaica international joined West Ham in 2015 and has scored 83 goals for the club in more than 300 games. West Ham host Wolves on Monday in the Premier League.
