West Ham youngster George Moncur has signed his first professional contract with the club.

Mocur follows in the footsteps of his father, former Hammers star John Moncur, by signing a deal with West Ham and the 17-year-old has been rewarded for his displays for the under 18s and Alex Dyer's reserve team with a two-year deal.

The teenager was delighted to win a professional contract and he admits he has learned a lot from his father.

"I found out a couple of weeks ago when Alex Dyer had a word with me after training," Moncur told the club's official website.

"I told my Dad and he was really happy and told me to work hard and keep doing well.

"It helps so much to have a dad who has been through the same experiences himself. He tells me lots and I've just got to take it all on board and listen to what he says."
