West Ham have completed the signing of Portuguese forward Domingos Quina.

The UEFA European Under-17 champion will report to the Hammers in July after they fought off reported interest from Arsenal, Tottenham Hotspur, Liverpool and both Manchester clubs.

Previously at Chelsea, the Guinea-Bissau born youngster refused to return to the club after international duty according to Sky Sports News, claiming he felt his chances at Stamford Bridge would be limited.

The forward is a bright prospect having already scored eight goals in 14 appearances for the Portuguese Under-17 side that saw them crowned European champions on Saturday with a victory over Spain in the final.

Initially, Quina will arrive on a two-year scholarship and is set to sign a professional contract on his 17th birthday in November, having already agreed terms.

Academy director and head of player coaching and development Terry Westley told the club's website: “Domingos is an exciting young player and he has seen that we can help him to develop and make the most of his many talents at West Ham United. He wants to come on our journey the same as the likes of Martin Samuelsen, Reece Oxford and Reece Burke see their futures here.

“Slaven Bilic personally met with Domingos during the time he spent training with us and his interest in the player and the discussion they had undoubtedly helped to persuade him that West Ham was the right place to continue his development.”
