Marcus Edwards has signed a new contract with Vitoria de Guimaraes.

The Daily Mail says Edwards has put pen to paper on a new deal with Vitoria de Guimaraes, despite reports linking him with a January switch to West Ham.

The Hammers had been heavily linked with the in-demand forward, who has seen his stock rise greatly since swapping English football for Portugal.

London-born Edwards, 22, has signed a lucrative new deal which represents his standing as one of Vitoria's top players, with the news being announced on Thursday evening.

Former Tottenham starlet Edwards has signed a three-year extension with the club, keeping him contracted until 2024, with Vitoria confirming that the player has agreed to a £45million release clause.

A club statement read: "Edwards is serving the second season with Vitória SC, asserting himself as one of the most influential players on the team and one of the highlights of the Liga NOS, having even integrated the pre-selection for the best 11 of the season 2019/2020.

"The English under-20 international is also shielded by a €50m (£45m) termination clause."
