West Ham United striker Gianluca Scamacca has spoken for the first time since sealing a £30.5million move to the London Stadium from Serie A side Sassuolo.
Scamacca’s arrival makes him the Hammers' fourth signing of the summer, following the arrivals of Alphonse Areloa, Nayef Aguerd and Flynn Downes from Paris Saint-Germain, Stade Rennais and Swansea City respectively.
Despite links with Paris Saint-Germain and Arsenal, Scamacca, who scored 16 Serie A goals last season, opted to join the Hammers. Speaking after sealing the move, the Italian explained why he wanted to join the side who are competing in the play-off qualifying rounds of this season’s Europa Conference League.
