It was the biggest non secrets out there, but finally West Ham has officially announced the signing of Spanish forward Toni Martinez from Valencia CF.
The 18-year-old striker has been a prolific scorer throughout his time with Los Che, netting more than 100 times over the past four seasons. The Spain U17 international will join the Hammers on a three-year contract on 1 July 2016, but Valencia have kindly given the 18-year-old permission to train with his future teammates immediately to help him to settle in England.
“For me, it’s a great opportunity to be here and I hope to make the most of being at such a big club,” said Martinez speaking to WHUFC.com “I joined West Ham because of the progress that the club is making. The decision to come here was made because it is a brilliant opportunity to join an interesting club in the Premier League.”
