West Ham United news: Martin Samuelsen signs new four-year deal
Highly-rated winger Martin Samuelsen has signed a new contract with West Ham.
The 19-year-old, who impressed during a 20-game loan spell at Peterborough last season, has penned a new four-year deal at the Olympic Stadium.
He told the club's official website: “I’ve been here for a year now, and nothing makes me happier than signing a new contract at the Club to stay even longer.
“I’ve really enjoyed the year I’ve had at the Club so far and I want to build on that. It’s just been one upward journey so far, and I’m really happy to sign a new deal and hopefully I can push on and do even better.
“This season, I think it’s either going to be another loan or first team football for me at West Ham,” he continued.
“I really enjoyed my time at Peterborough United last season and to have another spell playing good football on loan somewhere would be great.
“Both options would be good for me, but one is tougher to achieve than the other! Whatever happens for me this year, I’ll go into it 100 per cent committed. My long-term goal is to get into the West Ham first team XI.”
