West Ham midfielder Pablo Fornals is currently enjoying a carer purple patch for both club and country.
Signed from Villarreal in 2019 for £24million (BBC), the 25-year-old struggled to make the immediate adaptation to life in the Premier League.
However, as David Moyes has transformed the Hammers, Fornals has also undergone an upturn in fortunes.
Speaking during the Sky Sports coverage of Spain against Greece, former Iron, Tony Gale was full of praise for the attacking midfielder.
I don’t think there’s a fitter man at West Ham. He’s a workaholic, his work rate is phenomenal.
Despite only appearing for a 25-minute cameo as Spain triumphed 1-0, Fornals completed two crosses, one long ball and 12 accurate passes (Sofascore).
So far this season the six-times capped ace has scored four and assisted two goals in 17 appearances across all competitions for West Ham.

Fornals almost epitomises the growth at the London Stadium in the last 18 months.
Somewhat of a bit-part player prior to Moyes’ return, now Fornals is a key part of the Irons’ success and his work rate is a huge factor.
Spain will now face Sweden on Sunday and the £18million valued ace can expect to feature once again.
