Mubama told: Concentrate on playing… not money
West Ham have told Divin Mubama to concentrate on playing not money and as a result the youngster looks very much set to get plenty of first team action over the next few weeks writes Hughie Southon.
The club has made it clear to Claret and Hugh this afternoon that there will be no further contract discussion it is “inappropriate ” given the the number of games in which could be involved between now and Christmas.
Mubama told: Concentrate on playing… not money
It’s a period when the teenager has the chance to reinforce his claims for a decent contract with injury and lack of form affecting Michail Antonio and the latter having been Danny Ings’ problem almost from the day he arrived at the club.
And following his display at Burnley the club clearly have him very much on their minds and Claret and Hugh was told by its key source “It is inappropriate to be doing anything other than allowing him to concentrate on playing with so many games going on. We want his mind on playing not money,”
That will come as a huge boost to the 19 year old who now looks set to be bang in the first team frame following our key contact’s bold statement. His performance at Burnley has clearly been more than enough to finally give the manager an opportunity for him to show the club exactly what he has got.
