DONE DEAL: Fabianski excited to make West Ham move

West Ham have announced the signing of Swansea City goalkeeper Lukasz Fabianski.

The Hammers have confirmed the signing of Polish goalkeeper Fabianski from relegated Swansea City in a deal worth £7m.

The 33-year-old has signed a three-year-deal in east London as new manager Manuel Pellegrini looks to bolster his ranks between the posts.

Former Arsenal keeper Fabianski, who is currently away at the World Cup in Russia, has just under 200 appearances in the Premier League and 45 caps for Poland.

Pellegrini, who has already seen right-back Ryan Fredericks and central defender Issa Diop sign this window, is currently in Spain and will return to the capital towards the end of June, before some of the players return for pre-season training on July 2.

Fabianski said: "West Ham is a massive club so I'm really happy to be joining at such an exciting time here.

"I will do my best on and off the pitch to help the team to achieve the best results possible and can't wait to start this new chapter of my career."
