West Ham United's Head of Recruitment Rob Newman has reflected on a busy first summer transfer window at the London Stadium, having been appointed last October.
The Hammers made eight signings over the summer, spending over £150million with Lucas Paqueta, Gianluca Scamacca, Nayef Aguerd, Maxwell Cornet, Emerson, Thilo Kehrer, Flynn Downes and Alphonse Areola all arriving on permanent deals throughout the window.
Speaking to the Hammers' official website, Newman responded to being asked about getting a buzz upon the completion of a deal: “Yes. I think two instances have brought that home to me since the start of the season. When Nayef [Aguerd] got injured at Rangers, there was not a sadder man than me because he is such a good, good character.
