The club have a 99-year lease on the venue and pay an annual rent of £2.5m, which covers nearly all their costs. They also contributed £15m towards the conversion costs, with the public purse paying the rest.
This has led to widespread criticism from politicians, supporters of other clubs and campaigners for accountable and transparent government.
In a statement sent to Press Association Sport, the chief executive of the TaxPayers' Alliance John O'Connell said: "For too long the details of this shabby deal were kept in secret and lacked proper scrutiny so Sadiq Khan is absolutely right to look again at the case.

"It's now down the those in charge of the inquiry to get to the bottom of how West Ham were gifted the deal of the century while ensuring their investigation doesn't end up costing the taxpayer as much as the stadium."
Khan's investigation will cover all stadium costs but it is the retractable seating system that was installed to get football fans closer to the pitch that is causing the most alarm.

"Londoners must now add the stupendous costs of retracting the seating to the other numerous poor deals for the taxpayer the West Ham contract contains.

"Londoners will rightly want to know how they ended up bearing the costs of the former mayor's disastrous negotiations."
