Yarmolenko, who has joined the Hammers from Borrusia Dortmund, is of the opinion that the Premier League is the best league in the world and it is the perfect place for him to test his abilities.

The 28-year-old also believes that the best opportunity for a player to showcase his talent is in the big matches and that is exactly why he came to the Premier League. He also vowed to make the West Ham supporters happy.
 


Yarmolenko told the club's official website: “The Premier League is, not even one of the best, but the best league in the world.

"It is difficult to play in it, so it will be very interesting for me to see my abilities in England.

“Of course, for any footballer, it is better to play in big matches.

"There is a real chance to show yourself, and that is actually why I transferred to the Premier League.
