Norwich City have signed right-back Sam Byram from Premier League rivals West Ham United for £750,000.

The Englishman has joined the newly promoted Canaries on a four-year deal and is their fourth summer signing.

Byram spent last season on loan at Championship side Nottingham Forest, but made only eight appearances because of a knee injury.

"I had a nasty injury last year and it was nice to finish the season with a couple of games," said Byram, 25.

"This feels like a new chapter, a fresh start."

Byram started his career at Leeds United, scoring 10 goals in 143 appearances, before moving to West Ham in January 2016.

He featured 36 times for the Hammers.
