Kingdom West Ham have signed Leicester goalkeeper Mads Hermansen on a five-year deal, the Premier League club announced Saturday.

No fee was disclosed, but British media reported that West Ham were paying around £20 million ($27 million) for the 25-year-old Denmark international.

Hermansen made 72 appearances for Leicester, winning the Championship title in 2024. He impressed last season as the Foxes were relegated from the Premier League.

West Ham were in the hunt for a new goalkeeper after Poland’s Lukasz Fabianski left at the end of last season. Hermansen will compete with Alphonse Areola, 32, who played 26 times in the Premier League last season.
