Ajeti potential excites Hammers
West Ham believe they have signed a player who has a bright future ahead of him, having completed a deal to bring FC Basel striker Albian Ajeti to the London Stadium.
The 22-year-old Switzerland international has agreed a four-year contract with the Hammers, bringing to an end his second spell with Swiss champions Basel.
He is another young player who we believe can have a big future at the club.

Ajeti, who has won three senior caps, has also enjoyed spells with Augsburg and St Gallen and now has an opportunity to try and prove himself in the Premier League.
Director of football Mario Husillos told the club's official website: "He is another young player who we believe can have a big future at the club. We feel he is ready to make this big step with West Ham.
"Our scouts have watched him many times and given very good reports. He is an aggressive, quick striker, who likes to play in the box.
"Our approach this summer has been to sign young players who have their best years in front of them and can have a good impact.
"We believe Albian is ready to perform from the beginning, but we also think that he can improve greatly working with us."
The Hammers open up their Premier League campaign with a visit from champions Manchester City at lunchtime on Saturday, with the Irons having conceded four goals in each of the last three meetings of the two teams in the capital.
West Ham are available at 11/2 to claim a draw on Saturday, with a 2-2 final scoreline priced at 25/1, while the Irons are 6/5 to secure a finish in the top half of the table come the end of the season.
