Michail Antonio 'cut from wreckage' of horror car crash after being trapped for almost an hour as West Ham striker's ex-wife joins him at hospital bedside

West Ham confirmed on Saturday that Antonio was involved in a car crash that led to him needing hospital treatment. They have claimed that the Jamaica international is stable, and details have now emerged of the aftermath of the incident. Per The Sun, Antonio was trapped in his Ferrari for around 45 minutes after crashing into trees, as four fire crews worked together to cut him free.

Antonio, who is a father of four, was airlifted to hospital and his ex-wife Debbie travelled from Manchester to be at his bedside, a source told The Sun. West Ham confirmed on Saturday that the striker was conscious and communicating, but there has been no word on the injuries he may have suffered.

The 34-year-old remains a key member of West Ham's squad and has played in every Premier League game thus far this season, scoring once, in a 4-1 win over Ipswich Town. The Hammers are currently 14th in the Premier League.

West Ham will continue to issue updates on Antonio condition as and when they have them. On the pitch, the Hammers face Wolves on Monday evening.
