Former Arsenal midfielder Jack Wilshere has joined West Ham on a three-year deal and says he has moved to the club he supported as a boy.
The 26-year-old England player's contract with the Gunners expired at the end of June.
"It feels special. Many people know that I've had a special bond with this club growing up," he said.
"I've got good memories of my childhood supporting West Ham, watching them at Upton Park."
The Hammers are also closing in on the signing of Ukraine forward Andriy Yarmolenko.
A fee of about 20m euros (£17.66m) is understood to have been agreed with Borussia Dortmund.
Wilshere is set to fly to Switzerland to link up with new West Ham manager Manuel Pellegrini's squad at the club's pre-season training camp.
