    >Andy Irving will join up with the West Ham squad tomorrow when players not involved with international duty will report to Rush Green for pre-season training.

    >Last September West Ham signed the Scottish midfielder from Austrian Bundesliga side Klagenfurt for a reported £1.5m transfer fee but the transfer was not officially announced by either club with the official confirmation coming from the Austrian Football Association website with the player being loaned back to Austrian club for the season.

    >In March, Irving told the Edinburgh Evening News “I heard about the possibility from my agents about 10 days before the window shut, It was a lot to take in having games to focus on too, but of course it’s something every kid dreams about. I was buzzing, as were my family.”

    >”Travelling to London was a bit chaotic. It was during the time when UK control towers were down so flying to Brussels and then driving with my agent to London wasn’t exactly the easiest – but it was definitely worth it, absolutely.

    >”I believe that I can go to West Ham and show my quality. It’s a challenge I’m very excited for. I understand the level that I’m going to and it’s up to me to show that I can play at that level.”

    Irving had a great season in the Austrian Bundesliga with 9 goals and 4 assists in 28 games whic is not bad for a central midfielder. He will be given a chance in pre season.

    Can’t feel great signing for a big club and them never actually announcing you signed? All a bit weird
