Eighteen year old Martin Samuelsen left Manchester City this year to join West Ham. He left his native Norway at 14, having previously rejected a contract at Real Madrid. The winger made his first-team debut in the Europa League this season as he sat his A-levels and attained B-grades in maths, physics and chemistry. 
“West Ham have shown in the past that they have given young players a chance,” Samuelsen says. “If you are good enough you are old enough. You saw with Reece against Arsenal. Looking back I don’t regret [coming to England]. I could have gone through Norway but I made a good decision. I had a good time at City but it was also very difficult. There has maybe been a revolution in the last few years in youth development in England. Looking at West Ham they are doing a great job at that.”
Samuelson was speaking the the Independent with fellow young Hammers Reece Oxford and Josh Cullen.
I would love to see this boy get a run out,next season we may not need Moses if this lad comes through,maybe the league cup could be his and Callum’s big break,
Oxford should play at least another dozen games even if only as sub,
