Reece Burke signs first professional West Ham United deal

Eighteen-year-old defender Reece Burke signs his first professional deal with West Ham United.

West Ham United youngster Reece Burke has signed his first professional contract with the Premier League club.

The 18-year-old, who has featured on two occasions for the senior side, has committed his future to Upton Park until the summer of 2017.

Speaking to the club's official website, the defender said: "It's a great achievement for me. My first professional contract for the club and to sign for a great club like this is really good.

"I started off pre-season away with the first team and obviously did quite well there, came back, scored my first debut goal and have just carried on from there. I'm doing well, and I'm just glad it's come to this."

Burke joined the Hammers at the age of nine.
