West Ham has declared that Dan Rigge, who was initially made public by the dependable Fabrizio Romano, has agreed to a new contract with the team.

The 17-year-old was being pursued by two La Liga teams and four Premier League teams, but he decided to remain at the London Stadium.

According to the Sun, there was a lot of interest in him even before he joined the Hammers from Manchester City last summer.

“Dan Rigge has signed a new deal at West Ham, all completed,” Romano tweeted. Verified.

Four Premier League clubs and two La Liga teams expressed interest in the 2006-born midfielder, but he was more concerned with his future with West Ham.

Numerous Premier League teams expressed interest in signing Rigge, indicating his bright future in the game.

The Hammers had to sign him to a new contract, so it was imperative that they made the announcement—a huge coup.

Even though he only came last season and hasn’t played enough to make his value soar, clubs will still be keeping an eye on him.

Now, the Hammers may expect a respectable fee for his services in the market if he decides to depart in a year or two.

Given his talent, it’s also likely that David Moyes will move him up to the first team in the upcoming months.

West Ham cannot afford to treat him the same way because they have lately lost some of their young players.
