West Ham have announced the signing of Ashley Fletcher from Manchester United via the official club website.
Fletcher, who is regarded as 'prolific' by the London outfit, has joined on a four-year deal, becoming the club's fourth signing of the summer, following the acquisitions of Havard Nordtveit, Sofiane Feghouli, and Gokhan Tore.
The 20-year-old spent the second half of the season on loan at Barnsley, and scored the opening goal of their League one play-off final victory over Millwall. He underwent a successful medical at Spire Roding Hospital, prior to agreeing terms with the Hammers.
"I am very excited to be here," he said to the club's website.
"West Ham are a massive club and I am just happy that I can come and further my development here at West Ham.
"I think it is a Club with a lot of ambition. They have a lot of good players and it was a special final season. They managed to finish the campaign very well.
"West Ham are a Club built on traditions of giving youngsters a run and hopefully I can get my chance as well."?
