Cressie brings more Irons cheer

|
Aaron-CresswellAaron Cresswell has become the second Iron to extend his contract within the last 24 hours following Michail Antonio agreeing a new deal.
The club announced today that the left back has agreed a one-year extension to his long-term contract which gives him another five years with the club.

The 2015 Hammer of the Year has had two amazing years since joining the club and kicked-off the new season by putting pen to paper on a deal that will keep him at the club until 2021.

Speaking to West Ham TV he said: “It’s great news for me. I’ve been here for two years now and I’m looking forward to the next five seasons now that I’ve signed.

“Last season, especially with it being the last season at the Boleyn Ground, was pretty special, with the Manchester United game one which will live with me forever.

“This season, we’re all looking forward to the new Stadium that’s up and running now, the first game with Juventus which is obviously going to be a fantastic day, and the season ahead.”
