Bookmakers Sky Bet are running their Summer transfer specials and as normal this includes a number of West Ham players linked in the media as possible outbound transfers from the Hammers.
Marko Arnautovic is at odds of 7/2 to join Manchester United and 12/1 to join Everton while Spurs and Wolves are both 25/1
However, he is 1/4 odds on to stay at West Ham and 2/1 to leave West Ham to any club.
Michail Antonio is at odds of 3/1 to join Burnley followed by Crystal Palace at 7/2, Chelsea is 16/1 and Wolves 25/1 outsiders.
However, he is 5/6 odds on to stay at West Ham and 5/6 to leave West Ham to any club.
Manuel Lanzini is at odds of 9/4 to join Liverpool, 20/1 to Spurs or Arsenal
However, he is 4/11 odds on to stay at West Ham and 2/1 to leave West Ham to any club.
I reckon Lanzini will stick around for one more season to see how things work out with Pelligrini but if we don’t make Europe at the end of the season he’ll be off. COYI
