Alex song who was on a loan spell at West ham last season, impressed the team’s executives who have decided to keep him on permanently on a 3-year contract. He still has not exhausted his contract with Barcelona. He is supposed to be on their team for 2 more years but West ham has already reached an agreement with Barcelona to sign him permanently. The only thing left for the deal to be final is Song’s medical and fitness exam. He incurred an ankle injury while on his loan spell at West Ham last season which may impair his medicals, but if he is declared fit then the deal will be final.
