Former West Ham United attacker Michail Antonio is training with Leicester City as a free agent, according to the Telegraph journalist John Percy. Antonio has been a free agent since leaving West Ham in the summer after both parties could not agree to an extension at the London Stadium club. The former Hammers star was at Leicester’s training ground on Thursday for talks over a deal, and while nothing has been decided yet, he has continued to train with the 2015-16 Premier League Champions.

Antonio has not played at senior level since a road traffic accident last December, but he has featured for West Ham under-21s in recent months to continue building up his fitness. The 35-year-old played for them in the Premier League 2 opening match on 18 August against Nottingham Forest under-21s and is now hoping to get a deal at Leicester. He spent ten seasons with the Hammers, scoring 83 goals in 323 appearances, and he is not keen on retiring yet despite some punditry roles of recent.

Leicester are 13th in the Championship table after 20 games, with three points separating them from the play-offs positions.
