And these fans are buzzing. Benvenuto Gianluca!
Areola, Aguerd, Downes and now Scamacca. West Ham are quietly having one of the best windows they’ve had in a long, long time. David Moyes is deservedly being backed with quality signings & hopefully more to come. Exciting times.

Absolutely amazed that we’ve been able to get this transfer done. I’ve been watching and tracking Scamacca for nearly two years and haven’t been this keen for us to sign a player since we brought in Dean Ashton. Very excited to see Gianluca in the claret and blue #WHUFC #COYI https://t.co/nPBPI3zHoI

Italy manager Roberto Mancini rates Scamacca highly! He said in an interview “He has everything!”

I don’t think some of our fans actually grasp how good this guy is & the potential is scary. pic.twitter.com/ObU0XTk16p
