West Ham have completed the signing of defender Aaron Wan-Bissaka from Manchester United.
The right-back joins on a seven-year contract for an undisclosed fee, understood to be worth £15m.
“It’s an amazing feeling to be back in London, and I’m excited for what’s coming. I was born here, so I know the ins and outs of London, which plays a big part in my life, so to be back playing in this city means a lot to me.
“I’m happy to be here, am grateful for the warm welcome, and I am excited to be playing for the club and will give it my all.
“I can’t wait to get on the pitch, get to know the players, and push on from there. I see a team that is in it together, that will push each other to win, and a group that has got each others’ backs through thick and thin, so being part of that and having that insurance helps a lot when you are surrounded by a good squad.”
West Ham technical director Tim Steidten added: “I am delighted we’ve been able to get the deal to sign Aaron over the line. He’s exactly the type of player we’re looking to attract to this club in the prime years of his career.
“He’s an incredibly talented defender who we rate very highly – superb in one-on-one situations. He’s versatile too, which is clearly another positive. He’s played over 170 Premier League games during his career – he knows the division inside-out.
“It’s a really exciting time for us as we prepare for the start of the new season this weekend.”
Wan-Bissaka joined Man Utd in June 2019 from Crystal Palace and 190 appearances for the club in all competitions, winning the FA Cup and the EFL Cup at Old Trafford.
He is set to be replaced at Old Trafford by Noussair Mazraoui, who is closing in on a move from Bayern Munich after completing a medical.
Erik ten Hag’s side agreed a £17.2m deal with Bayern for Morocco international Mazraoui, a transfer fee of £12.9m plus performance-related add-ons worth £4.3m.
Manchester United are also closing in on a deal for defender Matthijs de Ligt, who has also completed a medical.
