West Ham have completed the signing of Gianluca Scamacca and the Italian is thrilled to be joining David Moyes’ cockney boys.
Scamacca has signed for the club for a fee of £30.6m with £5m in add ons, as exclusively revealed by ExWHUemployee, from Serie A club Sassuolo, whilst picking up the number 7 shirt.
The Italian international couldn’t contain his excitement in joining West Ham and stated that he feels he and our club are the perfect fit.
“I’ve waited a long time for this moment,” admitted Scamacca to the clubs Official Website. “It’s been a dream to play in the Premier League.
“I feel like West Ham is the perfect team for me. They showed they really wanted me and when I spoke to the manager there was an instant understanding.
“I can’t wait to play and show the supporters what I can do in the West Ham shirt – I hope we will love each other.”
Irons manager David Moyes is too understandably delighted to have landed the striker who was highly sought after by top clubs including Arsenal, Juventus and Paris Saint-Germain.
“We’re delighted to have got Gianluca in,” stated Moyes.
“He comes really well recommended – and we’re looking forward to working with him. He’s a young centre-forward with a really bright future ahead of him.”
As revealed by Ex exclusively to thewesthamway.com, Scamacca will be in line to face RC Lens this Saturday in our final pre-season fixture ahead of a mouth-watering opening Premier League fixture against Manchester City the following Sunday.
