Argentine Striker Makes Premiership Comeback

Argentine Striker, Mauro Zarate has agreed to a three-year deal with English premiership side West Ham.

Zarate who played in the Argentine league last season emerged as the highest goal scorer at local club Velez Sarsfield.

In the 2011/2012 season where he played for Inter Milan, the player struggled for playing time in Mourinho's team which led to his exit for Lazio the following season, he still didn't find it easy at Lazio and afterwards, he left for his home country of Argentina.

The 27 year-old Argentine who will be making his return to the EPL after 6 years has agreed to a three year deal for the chance at Sam Allardyce's squad thereby adding more firepower to the Hammers. Zarate is expected to sign the contract tomorrow Tuesday.

Speaking to Sky Sports News, the Argentine international said 'It's a new chance for me. West Ham called me. They are a fierce team and now I think I want to play (there).''

Boss Sam Allardyce had been mandated by club owners to bring life into the club and more interesting games for the fans in the coming season after he missed being sacked. West Ham was 13th in the last season with a meagre 40 points and the Club owners David Sullivan and David Gold decided to acquire the Argentine to set 'pulses racing in the East end.'
