West Ham signed Gokhan Tore from Besiktas for a £2.5 million loan fee and will have a £10 million buyout clause option to sign him on a permanent deal.
We took a look at how West Ham fans reacted to the transfer on social media.
The Tore transfer saga went on for months. In fact Slaven Bilic had wanted Tore since last season. This pretty sums up the situation for most Hammers fans leading up to the move.

Tore has explosive pace and and impressive dribbling ability. This fan really has done his homework!
I think the best part about Gokhan Tore is his pace. I think he's going to be a handful on the flank for West Ham. His speed is undeniable.

Carlos Bacca looks like he could be the next player to join West Ham this summer. Just imagine Tore, Payet, Lanzini and Bacca all in the same team…
Gokhan Tore & Carlos Bacca. West Ham have zero chill rn.

He really is Bilic’s golden boy!
Welcome Gokhan Tore. Bilic rates him very highly and for that reason I'm excited.

Frightening to think what this lot could achieve next season.
