West Ham United were by far the busiest Premier League club on transfer deadline day – bringing in four new players to the Boleyn Ground.

Firstly; the Hammers completed the £7m signing of Nottingham Forest winger Michail Antonio, who started his career at non-league side Tooting & Mitcham.

The 25-year-old scored 15 goals in all competitions for Championship outfit Nottingham Forest last season.

Next up was Croatia international striker Nikica Jelavic, who sealed a £3m instant return to the Premier League following Hull City’s relegation from the English top flight back in May.

The 30-year-old, who has 36 international caps to his name, netted eight times in 28 league games for the Tigers last term.

West Ham’s third deadline day signing was a familiar face as FC Barcelona midfielder Alex Song returned to the club on a season-long loan from the Spanish giants.

The Cameroon international, 27, who made over 200 appearances for London rivals Arsenal, featured 31 times in all competitions for the Hammers during the 2014-15 season.

And lastly, Chelsea winger Victor Moses similarly penned a season-long loan deal at the club after signing a new four-year deal with the Blues.

The 24-year-old, who has 24 international caps for Nigeria, scored four goals in 23 appearances in all competitions whilst on loan at Stoke City last season.

The quartet’s arrival means new West Ham manager Slaven Bilic has now drafted in 12 new players over the course of this year’s summer transfer window.
