It’s no go Antonio
We made a point of checking out yet another rumour from the ‘rag’ after their morning story claimed he was the “missing jigsaw puzzle piece” in Roy Hodgson’s squad for next season.
And we were immediately no interest had been expressed from the one club with whom the Hammers would have expected to have heard from given the relationship between David Gold and Palace chairman Steve Parrish.
The Sun had claimed Roy Hodgson was keen on the former Hammer of the Year and that Antonio himself could well want a move to a club they claimed as on the rise.
But the story was immediately knocked down with a top source explaining there was no intention of selling Antonio who has a contract until 2021.
And he added there had been no contact whatsoever between the two clubs nor would they be entertained.
