West Ham have signed Cameroon midfielder Alex Song on a season-long loan from Barcelona.
The Hammers have the option of extending the deal for a further season.
The 27-year-old, who spent last year with the London side where he played 31 games in all competitions, is happy to return to the club.
“It was a very easy choice for me to come back and I’m very happy to be here,” he said.

“I feel at home and my family do too. They’re set up very well here and my kids are playing for West Ham academy.”
The Cameroon international joined Barcelona in 2012 from Arsenal for about £15m with an £63m release clause.
He played 206 times for the Gunners between 2005 and 2012, and has made 39 appearances at the Nou Camp.
