West Ham striker Michail Antonio would welcome a new attacking signing this month.

West Ham boss David Moyes is keen to bring in cover and competition for Antonio this month, and the forward says he feels he would benefit from the challenge.

Antonio has scored twice in his last three games, with an assist at Watford too, but recently went nine matches without a goal.

"I'm a person where I want a challenge, I want someone to be there pushing me and make sure I am doing the right things," Antonio told the London Evening Standard.

"The time I went nine games without scoring a goal, maybe someone could have stepped in and given me that little push so that I could hit the back of the net.

"I am not a person that would shy away from a challenge. I would definitely embrace someone coming in, I'd embrace the competition."
