The 30-year-old Ings, who scored six goals in 18 league games for Villa this season, will add competition up front for West Ham alongside Gianluca Scamacca and Michail Antonio. “It’s important I settle in as quickly as I can do – and do the important stuff on the pitch for West Ham,” said Ings, who has also played for Burnley, Liverpool and Southampton.
“We’ve got some massive games ahead of us and I’ve come here to try and score as many goals as I can to help the team to get some positive results.” West Ham did not disclose the transfer fee but British media reported that the east London club are set to pay around 15 million pounds ($18.52 million) for Ings.
The club expect him to be available for Saturday’s crunch home game against second-bottom Everton, who also have 15 points, when he could become the first player to have appeared in the claret-and-blue of Burnley, Villa and West Ham.
