West Ham flop Simone Zaza has lifted the lid on his nightmare spell in east London.
The striker joined the Hammers on loan in the summer from Juventus, but he failed to find the net for them and was sent back to Italy in January.
The 25-year-old, now on loan at Valencia, has explained why his time at West Ham went so badly, with the change of culture and surroundings proving a major stumbling block.
"Once I realised that I needed to leave Juve I decided to try an adventure abroad," Zaza told Gazzetta dello Sport.
