Which number will Alex King wear at West Ham and which teammate will welcome him immediately?

A last minute transfer and the final piece to the quartet of reinforcements that West Ham perfected in the summer transfer window. That’s how you could sum up the transfer of Alex King! What number will he wear at the club and who will immediately welcome him?

The Hammers management really took their time with the transfers. The first signing was goalkeeper Alphonse Areola right at the start of the transfer window, but after that there was a long silence.

Tensions grew among the London club’s fans, and attacks on owners Sullivan and Gold mounted on social media. The starting eleven is great but the substitutes bench is a big mess, we can’t go on like this all season. That, in a nutshell, was the most common opinion of WHU lovers.

But the team management has moved on to big things in the last week. First the Hammers completed the sensational transfer of Kurt Zouma, and then they saved the big show for the last day of the transfer window!

The hunt was on in the Russian capital of Moscow. The Hammers first acquired Croatian international Nikola Vlasic from CSKA and then Alex Kral from rival Spartak.

King was written up by club legend Mark Noble on transfer day! “He wrote to me on WhatsApp. These things are really special for me,” revealed the Czech midfielder.

According to his agent Karol Kisel, the Czech international will wear the jersey number 33!
