West Ham United starlet Mubama: I'm learning from Ings

West Ham United starlet Divin Mubama says he is constantly learning from training with his colleagues during preseason.

Mubama has impressed during the club's friendly matches in recent weeks, scoring three goals in three games.

The Hammers are on a tour of Australia, which most recently saw them defeat Tottenham 3-2 at the Optus Stadium.

“It's always good to win a derby and to get on the scoresheet is just a bonus," said Mubama afterwards to the club website.

“Danny [Ings] helped me on the pitch tonight with his experience and I get to see it every day in training," Mubama continued.

"I'm the first to ask him about tips for finishing and things that can help my game.

"With all the experienced boys on the pitch tonight, I'm learning from them every day and it's special.

"First and foremost off the pitch you learn how to take care of yourself, I think when you're around professionals everyday you learn so much, not just on the pitch but off it especially with things like what they eat and stuff like that.

"For us youngsters it's about trying to take little things along the way and add them to our own game."
