DONE DEAL: West Ham sign Rodriguez from Real Betis

West Ham United have completed the signing of Argentina midfielder Guido Rodriguez on a free transfer. The 30-year-old joins the Hammers following the expiry of his contract with La Liga club Real Betis, where he spent four-and-a-half years.

It’s a historic club, that has a really interesting project. I think it’s the right Club for me, at the right time, and Ihope together we can keep growing,” the World Cup winner said.

“I spoke to Edson [Álvarez] before signing, and we’re both really looking forward to working together again.”
