West Ham 'agree Olympic Stadium move'

West Ham United have finally agreed a deal to move into the Olympic Stadium in London, according to reports.

The deal for a 99-year concession for the Hammers will be confirmed at a news conference tomorrow, according to PA.

Details of the revamped stadium, including retractable seating, are also expected to be announced.

The announcement will come after lengthy negotiations between the London Legacy Development Corporation and West Ham since the football club were named preferred bidders in December.

The agreement should also allow the stadium to be used as a venue for the 2015 Rugby World Cup.
