The Hammers have appointed Manuel Pellegrini as their manager this week on a £10m-a-year contract.

The 64-year-old worked with Rondon at Malaga, and the Venezuelan scored 27 goals in 72 appearances for the Spanish side.

Rondon has one year left on his Albion contract, but was a first-team regular for the Baggies last season and scored 10 goals in 40 appearances.

Nacer Chadli also has a £17m relegation release clause in his contract and Jonny Evans has a similar clause worth £3m.
