West Ham have landed Newcastle's Nolberto Solano on a free transfer, just moments before the close of the transfer window.
Alan Curbishley was desperate to bring in a right-sided midfielder after summer signing Kieran Dyer suffered a broken leg.
Earlier in the summer, Magpies boss Sam Allardyce insisted he had no intention of letting Solano leave but circumstances have changed with the versatile player heading to Upton Park.
Solano was recently recalled by Peru after an absence of more than two years.

I'm disappointed that he left. He's a legend and one of the players I've appreciated most at the club.
