CONFIRMED! West Ham make fifth summer signing as highly-rated youngster Sead Haksabanovic arrives from Halmstads

West Ham United have completed their fifth summer signing after wrapping up a deal for Montenegro international Sead Haksabanovic.

The 18-year-old attacking midfielder is a highly rated prospect and moves from Swedish side Halmstads for a fee believed to around £2.7million.

The Swedish-born player, who qualifies for Montenegro through his father, is a technically gifted individual and became Halmstads youngest player in history back in April 2015 when he was just 15.

Haksabanovic went on to make 70 first-team appearances for the club and was handed his senior international debut in May.

“I'm really happy to be here - it's a dream come true,” Haksabanovic said to the club website.
