James Ward-Prowse has completed his £30m transfer to West Ham from Southampton. The move ends the midfielder’s 20-year stay at Southampton, whom he joined at the age of eight.
The England international is West Ham’s second summer signing, after another midfielder, Edson Álvarez, joined from Ajax from £32m, and they expect to complete a £30m deal for the Manchester United defender Harry Maguire after agreeing a fee and personal terms. Maguire has been tying up some financial matters with United.
