West Ham United's cost-cuts have stretched to London away games.

The Sun says West Ham are curbing overnight hotel stays for the squad ahead of London away games in a bid to cut costs.

Nearly all Premier League teams stay together the night before games at rival grounds at a cost of around £10,000.

But Gianfranco Zola's players will stay at home this Friday night before meeting up ahead of their match against Arsenal at the Emirates on Saturday night.

An Upton Park insider said: "The feeling is to make London away games more like home games, so why stay away the night before?"
