Hammer Grady Diangana has joined West Bromwich Albion on a season-long loan

The 21-year-old, who will wear the No.29 shirt with “Diang” on the back, made 21 appearances for the Hammers last term, scoring twice.

The Congolese-born attacking midfielder, who has represented England alongside Kyle Edwards at youth level, signed his first professional contract while Slaven Bilić was at the Hammers helm.

Diangana is Albion’s sixth signing of the summer window. Sporting and Technical Director Luke Dowling said: “Grady comes with good Premier League experience but he’s now at this early stage of his career where he needs to get good, regular game time.

“He is direct with his running, has good ability and will be another exciting addition to our squad.”

West Ham confirmed the loan saying: “West Ham United can confirm that Grady Diangana has joined Championship side West Bromwich Albion on loan until the end of the 2019/20 season. 

Everyone at West Ham United wishes Grady all the best during his loan spell at The Hawthorns.”
