Freddie Ljungberg gets £4m pay-off from West Ham

Freddie Ljungberg is considering a move to the US or Asia after after agreeing a £4million pay-off from West Ham.
He was on about £70,000 a week at Upton Park following his £3m transfer from Arsenal 12 months ago.
But the 31-year-old was hampered by injuries during his time in east London and scored just twice in 22 league starts last term.
The cash-strapped Hammers have decided to cut their loses on the Sweden international, who had 12 months left on his contract and the option of another year.
"I gave my all at West Ham and enjoyed my time there but the decision is the best for the both of us," said Ljungberg.
"Now I will take my time to consider my football future."
