Venezuelan Keiber Lamadrid was officially announced as England's new West Ham United player.

After days of negotiation, examination and document processing, the young Venezuelan comes to the Premier League, from Deportivo La Guaira of the Venezuelan Football League (FUTVE League) on loan for 2026, in an agreement that includes a purchase option.

The announcement was made by the club itself through its social networks, without specifying Lamadrid's role when he arrived at the club, nor will he immediately join the first team.

The technical director of West Ham United, Nuno Espírito Santo, said that he is a young player. “He's in pre-season, I think he's coming to the end of the season, so he's not really ready to play yet, but we're going to evaluate him. We'll see,” he added.
