West Ham’s Antonio Suffers Lower Limb Fracture In Car Accident

After a serious car accident on Saturday, West Ham announced that Michail Antonio, a forward, had minor limb fracture surgery.

The 34-year-old will continue to be monitored at a central London hospital after being moved there.

Following a road traffic accident on Saturday afternoon, the Hammers announced on Sunday that West Ham United had confirmed that Michail Antonio had undergone surgery to repair a lower limb fracture.

West Ham issued two updates on Antonio’s condition on Saturday, saying he was conscious and communicating, after unverified images of a heavily damaged Ferrari began to circulate online.

A man who was trapped in his car was also confirmed by Essex Fire Service as firefighters had arrived on the scene.

Antonio has received the support of a number of Premier League clubs and players.

The Club extends its sincere gratitude to the entire football community for the overwhelming support shown since yesterday’s news, according to West Ham’s most recent statement.

“A heartfelt thank you goes out to the emergency services, first responders, and medical team who continue to help him recover,” as well as “extending a heartfelt thank you to Michail.”

The London-born Jamaica international joined West Ham in 2015 and has scored 83 goals for the club in 323 games.

In his 15 starts this season, he scored once for the Hammers, winning 4-1 at home to Ipswich.

In 2023, the former Sheffield Wednesday and Nottingham Forest striker won the Europa Conference League.
