West Ham defender Ben Johnson says he's happy to take over cleaning duties for away dressing rooms.

Johnson will inherit the role from former captain Mark Noble after his retirement this summer.

"It's definitely going to be my job, commencing from next season," Johnson said.

"I've seen what Nobes has done and it's something I'm going to take on board, maybe because no one else may do it.

"It will be an honour for me to do it and keep the tradition of that. I've had a conversation with (West Ham and England coach) Paul Nevin who has said he would like me to do it."

Johnson billed Noble as a role model during their time together at the Hammers.

"I've learnt so, so much from him," Johnson added. "You see some England players who may have one or two caps in their careers, no offence, aren't as good as Nobes.

"I messaged him on the first camp I was called up (in March). Every day he was asking me to let him know how training was and stuff like that.

"He does give me a bit of banter for being one of the oldest in this squad, but he wants me to do well and he's rooting for me which is a great feeling."
