West Ham have awarded Joey O'Brien a permanent contract after he impressed in pre-season.

The former Bolton midfielder has spent the last month with Sam Allardyce's squad in an attempt to prove his fitness.

And having successfully done so, the 25-year-old Irish international has been rewarded with a permanent deal.

O'Brien becomes Sam Allardyce's fourth signing of pre-season - and the fourth former Bolton player to move to east London following Abdoulaye Faye, Kevin Nolan and Matt Taylor.

A fifth could follow soon should triallist Jlloyd Samuel sign a permanent deal.
