The Hammers academy graduate has penned a new contract until 2025, just weeks after Declan Rice’s own new deal.

Grady Diangana of West Ham United signs a contract extension with West Ham United untill 2025 at Rush Green on January 18, 2019 in Romford, England.

West Ham United academy graduate Grady Diangana has signed a new long-term contract with the Premier League club.

The 20-year-old, who has been with the club since the age of 10, has put pen to paper on a six-year deal that will keep him with the Hammers until 2025.

Diangana joins fellow academy graduate Declan Rice in agreeing a contract extension with the East Londoners, the latter signing a new deal with the Hammers last month until 2024.

The right winger scored twice on his debut in the 8-0 Carabao Cup win over Macclesfield in September, and has made 15 first-team appearances already this season, according to Transfermarkt.

Diangana earned a first senior squad call-up in the 2017-18 season, featuring in the matchday squad for the FA Cup tie at Wigan Athletic last January and in Premier League games against Southampton and Chelsea.

In addition, he also earned his first international call up in November, representing England Under-20s in a 2-0 friendly win over their Germany counterparts.
