Adama Traore, the Spanish winger, has recently moved between London clubs, joining West Ham from Fulham. The 30-year-old revealed a surprising factor in his decision: a film about West Ham's passionate fanbase played a role in convincing him to join the club.

"I've been seeing West Ham for a long time," Traore stated. "It's a massive club, a massive fanbase. I've been watching since I was young, when I watched a film about West Ham. I know about the fans and how much passion they have".

Traore was likely referring to "Green Street," a fictional 2005 movie that delves into the culture of hooliganism associated with a West Ham fan group. The film's title references the road leading up to West Ham's former stadium, Upton Park. The club has since relocated to the Olympic Stadium.

This move also reunites Traore with West Ham manager Nuno Espírito Santo, with whom he previously worked at Wolverhampton. Traore, who developed through Barcelona's academy, has already played for four English teams: Aston Villa, Middlesbrough, Wolves, and Fulham.

Nuno Espírito Santo expressed his satisfaction with the new addition, stating, "He will give us a different option in attacking areas".
