DONE DEAL: West Ham land Man City midfielder Phillips

West Ham have signed Manchester City midfielder Kalvin Phillips.

Phillips moves to West Ham in a straight loan to the end of the season.

"I'm really pleased to be here," Phillips, who will wear the No11 shirt, told the club's website. “There's always been a lot of speculation about me moving to West Ham, so I'm really excited to get going now.

“There's so much to look forward to in the second half of the season for the Club and I can't wait to be part of it.

“There's an unbelievable group here and if I can come in and add the quality that I know I'm capable of, I'm sure we can give the West Ham fans plenty to be excited about between now and the end of the season."

Irons manager David Moyes also said: "We are really pleased to bring a player of Kalvin's quality to West Ham United.

“We've been big admirers of him for a long time and we believe that he will add strength and competition to our squad.

“Kalvin is an England international midfielder, with proven Premier League experience. We're excited to welcome him into the group and look forward to working with him."
