Benrahma, who earns around £50k-a-week (Claret and Hugh), made an instant impact for the Hammers. The former Brentford ace teed up Jarrod Bowen to head home within a minute of the restart.
The 25-year-old really does offer us something different down the left hand flank.
There aren’t many better at carrying the ball from deep than the Algerian. And if given a regular run of games he will surely prove to be a great signing for West Ham.
