West Ham goalkeeper Adrian has signed a new two-year contract with the club. Adrian has committed to remaining in east London until 2017 while the Hammers have the option to extend the Spaniard’s stay by a further two years.

The 28-year-old moved to West Ham from Real Betis in June 2013 and has since cemented his place as the club’s first-choice stopper.

“This is a proud moment for myself, my family and friends and I am really happy to have signed my second contract with the club,” Adrian said.

“I feel really happy for the club and the fans. I never imagined this kind of relationship with the fans. I spent 16 years at Real Betis and it was difficult to leave your home. But from the moment I arrived in London the West Ham fans had a special relationship with me.

“For me this is a really good moment and I just want to enjoy it. This is my third season here and I want to stay here for a long time.”

The club are also set to move into the Olympic Stadium for the start of the 2016/17 campaign and Adrian admits their new home was a factor in his decision.
