West Ham confirm contract breakthrough with ‘fantastic’ first team star
West Ham have confirmed that midfielder Freddie Potts has signed a new long-term contract with the club as he continues an impressive loan spell with Portsmouth in the Championship.
The 21-year-old, who made his Hammers debut in December 2021 in the Europa League, has played three times for the first team. The 21-year-old’s other two appearances came in the Europa Conference League under David Moyes and Potts has a winner’s medal from that success in 2023.
The player was loaned to Wycombe Wanderers last season, where he won Player of the Year, before making the step up to the Championship with Portsmouth this term. Potts has been a key player under John Mousinho as the south coast club look to cement their place back in the second tier.
