Ricardo Vaz Te to leave West Ham United?

West Ham United striker Ricardo Vaz Te is reportedly preparing to depart the club after contract talks broke down.

The 25-year-old has two years remaining on his current deal, but it is understood that he wants to double his salary in order to remain with the Hammers.

However, the London club are unprepared to grant such a request, according to Goal.com, and therefore the Portuguese could be heading for the exit.

Vaz Te joined West Ham from Barnsley in January.
