The “Hammers” initially did not provide any details, but announced “an update in due course.” “The thoughts and prayers of everyone at the club are with Mikhail, his family and his friends at this time,” it simply said. The attacker has been playing for the Londoners since 2015. So far he has scored a total of 83 goals in 322 competitive games.
-Not Antonio’s first accident
As the Mirror newspaper reported, it is not the first time that Antonio has been involved in an accident. At Christmas 2019, dressed as a snowman, he crashed his luxury car into a front garden. According to his own statements, he was driving a little too fast on a slippery road.
West Ham’s next game, where German international striker Niclas Füllkrug also plays, is scheduled for Monday evening at home against Wolverhampton Wanderers.
