Transfer latest: Walker-Peters joins West Ham and Ferguson closing on Roma move
Full-back completes London Stadium move as a free agent
Brighton continue talks with Roma on Ferguson loan move
West Ham have completed the signing of the free agent Kyle Walker-Peters, whose Southampton contract expired this summer. The former Tottenham full-back joins up with Graham Potter to continue the Hammers’ summer business, which has been slow-going so far.
“He was a big, big part of me making the decision,” said Walker-Peters of Potter. “I’ve always liked his style as a coach and I think it’s going to suit me best. He spoke about trying to make the club like, a real family feel and that’s what I’m all about and I’d like to think I’m a good fit.”
