“The thoughts and prayers of everyone at the Club are with Michail, his family and friends at this time.

“The Club will issue an update in due course.”

Photographs from the scene showed extensive damage to the front of the vehicle.

Michail has been at West Ham United since 2015 and played in a range of positions including right back, right midfielder, and as a winger.

Eventually, he established himself as the club’s main striker and on 23 August 2021 he became West Ham’s top scorer in the Premier League.

Fans on X were quick to send their best wishes and prayers following the latest update.

One said: “Amazing news. Here’s to speedy recovery Michail take all the time you need.”

“Thoughts are with him and his family during this difficult time. Hoping for a full and quick recovery.”

A spokesperson for Essex Police said: “Officers investigating a serious collision in Epping are asking for witnesses and dash cam footage.

“We were called shortly after 12.50pm on Saturday 7 December to Coppice Row, Epping, following reports of what is believed to be a single vehicle collision involving a Ferrari.

“Emergency services attended and the driver has been taken to hospital.

“The vehicle has been recovered and we are no longer on scene.

“An investigation will be carried out by our Roads Policing Unit.

“If you have any information, CCTV, dash cam or other footage in relation to this incident, then please get in contact with us.

“Please quote incident 605 of 7 December when providing any information to make sure it gets to the right person as quickly as possible.

“Alternatively, please email the investigating officer, PS Mark Hewitt.”

Michail previously opened up about a car accident on Christmas Day in 2019 when the footballer ploughed his £210,000 Lamborghini into a south London garden while dressed as a snowman.

“This conversation is very like… (touches chest),” He told the On The Judy podcast previously. “Still to this day it’s hurt me.

“Basically yeah, slippery road. Obviously, in the car, it holds corners nicely in it so I’m going like 30, maybe 35, on a 30 road.

“It holds corners so I’m thinking I don’t even need to break, I’m just gonna go around the corner, sick car.

“As I’m going round the corner, it skids. So I s*** myself and I slam on the breaks.

“Worst thing you can do on ice, yeah, slam on the brakes cause you just speed up. Slam on the brakes, just skid but I’ve just gone up the curb.

“I don’t even remember it and then I’m seeing smoke coming out the front of the car.”

Antonio has made 15 appearances this season and scored once.

He is the club’s all-time Premier League top goal scorer, with 68 goals.

The forward joined the club in 2015 from Nottingham Forest and was named as the club’s Player of the Year in 2017.
