West Ham United: Premier League club sign Argentina midfielder Guido Rodriguez on a free

West Ham United have completed the signing of Argentina midfielder Guido Rodriguez on a free transfer.

The 30-year-old joins the Hammers following the expiry of his contract with La Liga club Real Betis, where he spent four-and-a-half years.

Capped 30 times by Argentina, Rodriguez was part of his country’s World Cup-winning squad in 2022 and is a two-time Copa America winner.

“I feel like it’s every footballer’s dream to play in the Premier League, and I was very excited when I heard that West Ham were interested in me,” he said.

“It’s a historic club that has a really interesting project. I think it’s the right club for me, at the right time, and I hope together we can keep growing.”
