Rosenior, who played 67 times for the Hammers after being signed by former boss, John Lyall, told West Ham podcast Moore Than Just A Podcast that as soon as he knew the club were keen on him, his mind was made up.
“As soon I knew it was West Ham, I said where’s the contract? As soon as I knew it West Ham I was off,” recalls Leroy, describing the move as “one of the best decisions I have ever made”.
Leroy was taking part in the second ClaretandHugh interview on the popular podcast.
In the interview, he reminisces about scoring 23 goals in a Hammers shirt before leaving east London to join Bristol City in 1992, after being plagued by injury.
On his four years at West Ham, Rosenior said: “I loved it, absolutely loved it there – even though I spent a lot of time in surgery and the treatment room after my knee problems!
“It is a team very close to my heart because I was there a long time even though I didn’t play as much as I would have liked.”
