West Ham United have finally announced the signing of Andriy Yarmolenko. The vastly experienced winger has been linked with a move to the London stadium throughout most of the summer, and at long last, we’ve got our man.
The official West Ham website confirmed his arrival from Borussia Dortmund today. The 28-year-old joins the club having signed a four-year contract.
Here’s how our supporters have reacted to the news on Twitter.
Superb signing ⚒🍾

Verdict:
This is another stunning statement from the club and one that clearly outlines our ambitions ahead of the forthcoming season. Having already made three critical signings, Yarmolenko has the ability to make an enormous contribution this season. To date, he’s already amassed 143 career goals, and his technical qualities are tremendous.
To their credit, Pellegrini and the board have identified talent that will significantly enhance the quality of our team, and they’ve acted accordingly. Let the signings continue!
