Goalkeeper Robert Green has admitted he is beginning to question his future after claiming he is the lowest earner in West Ham United's starting eleven.

Green, 28, claims he lags behind several of his team-mates in the wage stakes and has taken a swipe at the club after being told he will not be offered a new contract.

The former Norwich City keeper was voted the Hammers' player of the year last season and featured in every minute of their Premier League campaign.

"No matter what the figures are in the workplace in terms of wages, you either feel a valued member of your staff or you don't," he told The Sun.

"At the moment, I don't and clearly West Ham don't care about me.

"If you put the strongest West Ham XI out, I'd be the lowest earner by a long, long way.

"I do not even want to be close to the top earner at the club - I don't care about that. I would just like some parity.

"Generally, the situation here leaves a question mark whether the club are rewarding success and you end up questioning yourself and questioning your future."
