# West Ham United: Fans react to Kurt Zouma signing

**West Ham United have finally completed the signing of Chelsea central defender Kurt Zouma in a transfer worth around £29.8 million \[[Sky Sports](https://www.skysports.com/football/news/11685/12391116/kurt-zouma-west-ham-sign-france-international-defender-from-chelsea-on-four-year-deal)\].**

Enjoying a productive 2020/21 campaign, the 26-year-old registered five goals in 36 appearances as he helped his side win the UEFA Champions League \[[Transfermarkt](https://www.transfermarkt.co.uk/kurt-zouma/leistungsdaten/spieler/157509/plus/0?saison=2020)\].

Now, he has finalised his move across London after a long-drawn-out negotiation process and medical.

West Ham were known to be attracted to his situation as far back as the start of [August](https://www.skysports.com/football/news/12691/12369808/west-ham-transfer-news-deal-for-kurt-zouma-appears-difficult-talks-held-over-nikola-milenkovic). However, it has taken until the final weekend of the window for David Moyes to get his man.

Zouma will link up with the Irons on a four-year-deal, and one would presume he is arriving to be a sure-fire starter given the price tag.

In light of this news, no wonder loads of West Ham United diehards took to social media to celebrate the news.
