Out of contract in the summer, he stayed put under David Moyes after a resurgence in form playing across various positions including midfield.
Leeds wanted a loan deal for the 24-year-old Irons full-back, but eventually signed Connor Roberts from Burnley in a likewise deal.
The same outlet have now revealed that Johnson is expected to leave the London Stadium at the end of this season, with no new contract coming.
Johnson has turned down multiple offers from the club in order to leave, having already held talks with Rangers:
“Johnson, meanwhile, is set to leave the club when his contract expires at the end of the season, with Rangers one of a number of clubs interested.
“The 24-year-old’s representatives have held talks with the Scottish side and has also attracted interest from Crystal Palace and Championship side Leeds United.
“The right-back has rejected multiple contract offers from West Ham. Their recent offer was a four-year package, but both parties failed to reach an agreement. In February 2022, the versatile defender turned down a six-and-a-half-year deal.”
