Gianluca Scamacca seals permanent transfer from West Ham to Italian club Atalanta
West Ham Gianluca Scamacca
West Ham striker Gianluca Scamacca has left the club for Serie A side Atalanta just a year after his arrival.
Gianluca Scamacca has joined Italian club Atalanta on a permanent transfer just a year after signing for West Ham.
The 24-year-old Italian, who joined the Hammers from Sassuolo last year, has completed a permanent move for an undisclosed fee.
A statement on West Ham's official website said: "West Ham United can confirm that Gianluca Scamacca has departed the club and joined Atalanta BC.
"The 24-year-old has moved to the Italian Serie A side on a permanent transfer for an undisclosed fee.
"The centre-forward spent a single season at London Stadium and scored eight goals in 27 appearances, including five in the Hammers' run to lifting the UEFA Europa Conference League.
"West Ham United would like to thank Gianluca for his efforts and wish him well for his future career."
Italy international Scamacca made his Premier League debut as a substitute in a 2-0 home defeat by Manchester City on August 7 last year and scored his first goal in a 3-1 Europa Conference League victory over Viborg 11 days later.
However, he started only 16 times for the club during his season in England.
A statement on Atalanta's official website said: "Atalanta B.C. would like to extend a warm welcome to Gianluca and wish him the best of luck in his future personal and team endeavours as a Nerazzurro."
