Former West Ham goalkeeper Jimmy Walker has joined the club's backroom staff.

He has returned to the Club as U18s goalkeeping consultant.

Walker, who played for the Hammers between 2004-09, will work in the Academy of Football with Kevin Keen's youth team until the end of the 2021/22 season.

"It's great to be back," Walker told whufc.com. “Just doing that drive into Chadwell Heath gain and coming back in has brought back so many memories. It's great that there are so many people here that were here before as well.

“From the first moment I walked in here as a player, I loved every minute of it. If I can pass any knowledge on to the young goalkeepers and players here then that would be fantastic."
