West Ham United fans aren’t convinced by Manuel Lanzini’s latest comments.

West Ham United fans have reacted to Manuel Lanzini’s latest comments.

The Argentine attacker told the club’s official website that he feels “very comfortable” playing with West Ham.

If David Moyes’s side – who sit two points above the drop zone – are relegated then the 25-year-old will surely be among those who could move on this summer.

And fans of the East London club aren’t entirely sold on his commitment.

It’s worth pointing out that Lanzini, in the same interview, intimated that he could leave at some point in the future.

He said: “I don’t know what will happen in the future, but today I am very, very happy and I love playing here.”

New West Ham manager Slaven Bilic looks on during the UEFA Europa League match between West Ham United and FC Lusitans at Boleyn Ground on July 2, 2015 in London, England.

Such comments don’t exactly bode well and it’s entirely possible that Lanzini, who was signed by Slaven Bilic in 2015, would jump ship if West Ham were relegated.

On the plus side, he is valued at around £32 million according to CIES and, considering he has two years to run on his contract, United will be handsomely compensated if that scenario does materialise.
