West Ham striker Michail Antonio was involved in a terrifying car accident on Saturday.

He was taken to the hospital as a result.

“West Ham United can confirm that Michail Antonio is in a stable condition following a road traffic accident this afternoon in the Essex area,” the team said in a statement. “Michail is conscious and communicating and is currently under close supervision at a central London hospital.

“At this difficult time, we kindly ask everyone to respect the privacy of Michail and his family. The Club will make no further comment this evening, but will issue a further update in due course.”

A photo of what is rumored to be Antonio’s badly damaged car emerged on social media, though the image has not been confirmed to be his vehicle.

Antonio, 34, joined West Ham in 2015 and has been a staple in the team’s lineup since.

He has one goal and one assist in the Premier League this year.
