Following his departure from Southampton, West Ham have released defender Kyle Walker-Peters on a free transfer.

The 28-year-old full-back has a three-year contract with the Hammers, winning two England caps.

West Ham manager Graham Potter praised and praised him as a player who “has always impressed me whenever he has faced one of my teams.”

Walker-Peters started out at Tottenham and later moved on loan to Southampton before making the switch permanent.

He started 202 games for Southampton before leaving after his contract expired.

Walker-Peters was about to join Besiktas under Ole Gunnar Solskjaer, but the Turkish club announced on Thursday that they were no longer interested after West Ham had expressed interest in him. However, the Turkish club announced on Thursday that they were no longer interested.

Graham Potter was a significant, significant factor in my decision-making process, according to Walker-Peters.

“I think his coaching style will suit me well because I’ve always liked it.”

Every team aspires to win trophies, and West Ham does just that. I’ve spoken to Graham and he wants to make something special, and I’m hoping to be a part of that.

West Ham made Jean-Clair Todibo’s loan move from Nice permanent this summer by signing Senegal defender El Hadji Malick Diouf for £19 million from Slavia Prague.
