England goalkeeper Robert Green is delighted with his new four-year contract at West Ham United.

"I am delighted to have signed my contract," he told whufc.com. "Seeing what has been going on at the Football Club over recent months, I was keen to be a part of it all and what appears to be a bright future.

"I joined the Club a year ago in different circumstances, but the way the end of the year went for the team and for me personally, I was eager to put pen to paper on a new contract when the chance came around."

The 27-year-old Hammers' number one added: "It's only the second club that I've been at and every part of it, from the supporters to board level, from backroom staff to coaching staff, the support and passion are the main things that have been so apparent since I joined. I'm really pleased to have become a part of that future."
