West Brom boss Moore delighted to make Johnstone his first signing

West Brom boss Darren Moore is delighted with their deal for Manchester United goalkeeper Sam Johnstone.

The 25-year-old Lancashire lad has joined for an undisclosed sum after signing a four-year deal with the Baggies.

Moore was delighted to get the first signing of his regime into the squad - a signing he believes represents everything he will be trying to build in the months ahead.

"Sam is young and determined to be the best keeper he can possibly be - he's hungry to do that with us at Albion," said Moore.

"We've had him targeted from the outset and we're all delighted to have him on board.

"He buys into exactly what we are trying to achieve and will hopefully represent the shape of things to come."
