Emerson Palmieri will sign a four-year contract with the Hammers.

The Hammers have paid a fee in the region of £13 million for the Chelsea left-back who made only 71 appearances for the Blues.

The Italy international struggled to establish himself as a starter since his arrival from AS Roma in 2018.

He has won the UEFA European Championship, UEFA Champions League and UEFA Europa League in his professional career.

“I’m very happy to be here and to arrive here,” said Emerson on the club’s website. “It’s a big challenge for me, it’s a big team, so I’m very happy to be here and I’m ready.

“Personally, since the first day I arrived here in England, I always saw the big clubs and I always watched the big games and I knew the history about West Ham. The history is so, so big for this team and so when I knew about the interest for sure I said ‘Yes, let’s go, I want to go there’ and I’m here now!

“I can’t wait to get started in a West Ham shirt.”
