According to a report from Claret and Hugh, West Ham United could be open to selling both Michail Antonio and Arthur Masuaku this summer.

Hammers boss David Moyes will be desperate to bolster his ranks at the London Stadium this summer.
The Scot may well be looking to supplement his summer transfer budget by shipping out some of the deadwood, however.
The likes of Manuel Lanzini, Felipe Anderson, Andriy Yarmolenko and Fabian Balbuena all face uncertain futures in east London.
West Ham could look to sell Michail Antonio and Arthur Masuaku too
That’s according to Claret and Hugh who claim that the Hammers hierarchy are concerned by the duo’s track record with injuries.
Hammers News think that this would be a completely absurd move, however.
Moving on the deadwood is fine. But selling two of our key players would be complete madness.
Even if West Ham sign two strikers this summer, we need to keep Michy. Having three centre-forwards should be a given for a Premier League club.
The same goes for our left wing-back position. If we were to sell Arthur, Moyes would then have to sign two left wing-backs. It just doesn’t make any sense whatsoever.
Surely the West Ham owners shouldn’t consider selling either Antonio or Masuaku unless a ridiculous offer comes on.
This summer will be a vital one for the Hammers.
And selling either Michy or King Arthur would be a totally backwards step.
