Flynn Downes departs

West Ham United can confirm that Flynn Downes has joined Southampton on a permanent transfer for an undisclosed fee.

The 25-year-old midfielder spent last season on loan at the St Mary’s club, making 37 appearances as Russell Martin’s men won promotion back to the Premier League.

Brentwood-born Downes joined the Hammers in summer 2022 and played 35 games in Claret and Blue, including eleven in our run to the UEFA Europa Conference League title.

West Ham United would like to thank Flynn for his hard work and commitment during his time in east London and wish him well for his future career.
