West Ham sign Joe Hart on season-long loan

West Ham have signed goalkeeper Joe Hart on a season-long loan from Manchester City.

The England number one was deemed surplus to requirements at City when Pep Guardiola arrived last summer and he was eventually loaned out to Serie A side Torino.

Having arrived back in the UK, Hart was never going to chance Guardiola’s opinion of him and as such, he’s made the move to the London Stadium.

The 30-year-old will become West Ham’s number one, with Darren Randolph and Adrian falling down the pecking order.

Hart was keen to play regular Premier League football this season ahead of the 2018 World Cup and he’ll get that opportunity at West Ham.

The Hammers also reportedly have the option to buy Hart on a permanent deal next summer if he performs well, a smart piece of business by the club.
