West Ham United news: Highly-rated Reece Oxford hoping to emulate 'fantastic' captain Mark Noble

Teen star Reece Oxford has his sights set on one day becoming West Ham United captain.

The 18-year-old has been tipped for a big future by Hammers coaches and he recently signed a new four-and-a-half contract with the club.

That came in the wake of intense interest from Arsenal, Manchester City and Manchester United - who have all scouted the midfielder over the past year.

But, after penning his new deal at the London Stadium, Oxford revealed he sees his long-term future with the club as he wants to one day wear the armband.
