Argentina international forward Carlos Tevez has revealed that he is set for a move to West Ham along with national team colleague Javier Mascherano.
Both players represented their country at the World Cup finals, making the move probably one of the most expensive for the London club on the final day of transfer action.
A statement on Tevez's personal website said: "Carlitos Tevez, along with his team-mate Javier Mascherano, signs a contract to play for West Ham United of England."
West Ham are expected to unveil the duo at a press conference later Thursday.
