Ben Johnson’s contract with West Ham United expires on June 30, 2024, and he will leave the team.
The defender joined the team at the age of seven, and over the course of 17 years, he has made 109 senior games in Claret and Blue, graduated from the Academy of Football, and won two Young Hammer of the Year awards.
The 24-year-old sent this heartfelt note after being a member of the team that won the UEFA Europa Conference League in 2023.
Hello everyone,
I want to express my gratitude to everyone at West Ham United for helping me for the past 17 years and helping me become a regular member of the first squad.
I consider myself fortunate to have been able to play for the first team in the Premier League, domestic cups, and European competitions after graduating from the Academy of Football.
All I want is to be known and remembered for enjoying my football and playing with a grin during my time at West Ham. That is very significant to me.
Winning the UEFA Europa Conference League is, I think, my most treasured memory. It is not common to be involved in the winning of a European trophy, so to be present and take part in it and
My dreams were exceeded by what happened two seasons ago and I’m just so, so pleased I did it as a West Ham player. I’ll never forget that night.
I hope the new head coach at West Ham brings success to the team, and naturally, I will miss all of my teammates, the staff, and the fans.
I will always have happy memories of West Ham and will always be a part of my life. Finally, I would like to say a massive thank you to West Ham for helping me grow as a young man and footballer!
I’ll see you all shortly.
