Michail Antonio is happy to stay at West Ham and sign a new contract as long as he is playing regular first-team football, sources have told Football Insider.
The 33-year-old is settled at the London Stadium and loves the club – having joined in 2015.
The Jamaica international is believed to want the security of a longer-term deal – potentially spanning two years – which could take him to the end of his playing career.
Antonio currently earns a reported wage of £85,000-a-week at West Ham, and a well-placed source has told Football Insider he could be set for a small increase if he puts pen to paper.
The former Reading and Nottingham Forest star is now the undisputed first-choice striker for David Moyes following the exit of Gianluca Scamacca.

Antonio has scored two goals in five appearances this term.
He is the all-time record goalscorer for the Irons in the Premier League era, notching 63 goals in 233 appearances in the top flight.
The veteran forward, who has also played as a winger and a right wing-back, managed 10 league goals in three consecutive seasons between 2019 and 2022.
His current deal is set to expire in June 2024, but West Ham hold the option to extend his stay a further 12 months.
Antonio was the subject of interest in the summer window, with Saudi Arabian outfit Al-Ettifaq the most keen to sign the 33-year-old.
