One of West Ham's summer signings, Lucas Perez, allegedly refused to warm up in their match on Sunday against Everton at Goodison Park.
After the 'Hammers' re-established their two-goal advantage, with Marko Arnautovic netting a third, manager Manuel Pellegrini reportedly asked striker Lucas Perez to warm-up on the sidelines.
According to 'Sky Sports', the Spaniard sat on the bench looking disinterested as he spoke with goalkeeping coach Xavi Valero.
Perez signed from Arsenal on a three-year contract this summer for around £10m, though is yet to score his first West Ham goal despite making three appearances.
The London side are yet to release a statement about the incident.
