Lakeside Hammers have completed the permanent signing of Swedish ace Jonas Davidsson.

Davidsson spent last season with Reading Racers but he was snapped up from parent club Swindon on-loan.

He has emerged as Lakeside's third heat-leader and now The Hammers have moved to make his deal permanent.

"Jonas is a top flight speedway rider in mainland Europe, but has struggled to find that same form here with his previous clubs," Hammers team boss Jon Cook told the club's website.

"Since joining the Hammers' set up he has absolutely flourished and we wasted no time in snapping up his signature from his previous club, Swindon.

"If you saw his two performances at Peterborough and then the following night at the Arena Essex Raceway, it is blindingly obvious the lad is super quick and a fantastic asset of the Hammers revolution."

While Swindon have allowed Davidsson to leave their asset base they have continued their recruitment of young talent by announcing the signing of 17-year-old Charlie Saunders.
