Ricardo Vaz Te makes quit threat?

West Ham United forward Ricardo Vaz Te is said to be considering handing in a transfer request.

The 25-year-old, who moved to Upton Park in January, scored 12 goals for the Hammers last season.

According to The Mirror, he feels that he deserves to be given a pay rise following his role in the team's promotion last season and he may be prepared to quit the club if his demands are not met.

Vaz Te scored three Premier League goals in 58 appearances for Bolton Wanderers before leaving the Reebok Stadium in 2010.
