The Hammers signed the 25-year-old winger on transfer deadline day on a season-long loan from Brentford for a £4 million fee.

West Ham have an obligation to buy the winger for a further £20 million plus £5 million in add-ons next summer (The Guardian).

Benrahma was absolutely on fire in the Championship last season, as he racked up 17 goals and nine assists in 43 games for the Bees.

The Algerian has made just two substitute appearances for the Hammers so far. But many are expecting him to make a huge impact at the London Stadium.

One of Benrahma’s former teammates explained just how talented he is.

Lorenzo Vinci, who played with the 25-year-old at Nice, described the winger as a true magician, when speaking exclusively to Actufoot:

“For me, there’s no debate. It’s Saïd (Benrahma)! He impressed me so much when we played together. He was capable of doing anything he wants in any space he had. A true magician”

Benrahma has already made a smooth transition from Ligue 1 to the Championship.

Now it’s up to him to prove that he has what it takes at Premier League level.

The Algerian ace is unquestionably good enough to do exactly that. And we think that he will go on to be a real hit at West Ham.
