George Dobson is thrilled with his move to West Ham United.

The former Arsenal U18 captain signed for the Hammers late yesterday.

Speaking to the club's website, he said: : “I am over the moon to have signed and have been a West Ham fan since I was five-years-of -age and this is a surreal moment. Putting pen to paper is a dream come true for me.

“I had a great 10 years with Arsenal and they helped me as a footballer and as a person. But the time is right to move and I cannot wait to get started.

“I give 100 per cent every time I put the shirt on and I will give everything for the team.
