Danny Ings Ditches Aston Villa For West Ham Survival Bid

Danny Ings Ditches Aston Villa For West Ham Survival Bid

West Ham United have completed the signing of Aston Villa forward Danny Ings.

The relegation-threatended side have paid an initial £12m fee for the 30-year-old and have registered him on time to be able to make his debut against Everton on Saturday. A further £3m will exchange hands if West Ham can avoid relegation this season.

The former Burnley and Liverpool striker has signed a two-and-a-half-year contract at the London Stadium.

Ings was Aston Villa's top scorer this season with six goals but has not started a game after the World Cup break.

West Ham are 18th on the Premier League table and have scored just 15 goals all season.

A club statement read: "West Ham United are delighted to announce the signing of proven Premier League striker Danny Ings.

"Ings, a senior England international, has joined the Hammers from Aston Villa for an undisclosed fee until the summer of 2025."

Ings said: "I’m really excited to join West Ham United.

“It’s important I settle in as quickly as I can do – and do the important stuff on the pitch for West Ham.

“We’ve got some massive games ahead of us – and I’ve come here to try and score as many goals as I can to help the team to get some positive results.

“I’m really looking forward to getting started.”

West Ham United manager David Moyes added: “I’m really pleased to add Danny to the squad.

“He is a proven Premier League goalscorer and will add great competition for places in the attacking third.

“We’re looking forward to integrating him into the group, as we go into a busy period in our season.”
