His father Frode has revealed that “interesting” clubs are monitoring the teenager who is already a full Norway international.
The 19 year old explained: “I think it’s either going to be another loan or first team football for me at West Ham – I really enjoyed my time at Peterborough United last season and to have another spell playing good football on loan somewhere would be great.”
A club source revealed: “The plan was always to send Martin out and there’s interest in Ashley and a loan deal looks likely to be his next move.”
