West Ham wing-back Michail Antonio says he's learning Spanish so can get along better with teammate Pablo Fornals.

The West Ham star has formed close friendships with Pablo Fornals and Angelo Ogbonna, and says they muddle through speaking English on nights out.

Antonio, 30, told The Sun: “Everyone all over the world can be in one changing room, can get along.

“Some of my closest friends are Angelo Ogbonna, who's Italian, and Pablo Fornals who is Spanish. His English is good but is not proper.

“There's enough for me to understand what he's got to say and we can go out and have a meal and be able to speak to each other through it so it is quality.

“I'm trying to learn Spanish now - I feel like because of these players that are coming in.

"I shouldn't just expect them to speak English, even though we are in England.

“I feel that I should try and make an effort to learn how they speak."
