West Ham United have completed the loan signing of Inter midfielder Joao Mario.

 

The 25-year-old Portugal international joins the Hammers until the end of the season and becomes David Moyes’ first signing since taking over as manager.

Mario arrived at Inter for a fee of around £35 million in the summer of 2016 but failed to deliver the standard of performances displayed at previous club Sporting.

The midfielder arrived in London on Thursday to undergo a medical and finalise terms on a move to West Ham, with the transfer being announced on Friday.

Mario, who will take the number 18 shirt at the London Stadium, said: “I am really happy to be here.

“It’s a really amazing experience to join this amazing team and I am just glad to be here. It was a fast move.
