Virals: Czech duo welcome Alex Kral to West Ham in unique style

West Ham have left the confirmation of their latest transfer addition to two of their current stars.

On what has been a superb deadline day for the Hammers, Alex Kral became the latest Czech Republic international to become an Iron.

Following in the footsteps of Radoslav Kovac, Marek Stech and Tomas Repka before them, West Ham have an additional Czech mate at the London Stadium.

Signed on an initial year-long loan with the option to buy at the end of the season, Kral was confirmed in style alongside fellow international and now club teammates Vladimir Coufal and Tomas Soucek.

The 23-year-old was a mainstay in the Czech Republic midfield next to Soucek and earned a 6.50 Sofascore rating during the European Championships.

Capped on 22 occasions at senior level, Kral made 29 appearances last term for Spartak Moscow in the Russian top-flight.

What a day.

West Ham have truly exceeded expectations this summer, albeit most of the business was saved until the final hours of the window.

Hammers can now be confident David Moyes has all the necessary tools in order to compete both domestically and in Europe this season.

Predominantly a defensive minded midfiedler, Kral boasts strong dribbling, tacking, interception and aerial prowess (WhoScored).
