West Ham United sign young Serbian striker Luka Belic

West Ham United have confirmed the arrival of OFK Beograd striker Luka Belic, subject to international clearance.

The 19-year-old, who at the age of 16 in 2012 became the youngest player to ever feature in Serbia's top division, has agreed a one-year contract at Upton Park.

According to the club's official website, Belic will initially join up with West Ham's development squad.

"It's a dream come true for me and I'm looking forward to playing games and scoring a lot of goals. I'm already loving it here," he told the club's official website.

"I'm going to go step by step, work hard and play well for the Under-21s. I'm looking forward, firstly, to playing for the Under-21s and then, hopefully, my dream is to one day play for the first team.

"I think it's going to be great here at West Ham. They're going to help me a lot and I plan to help the team a lot too."

Belic has been capped by Serbia throughout the age groups up to the Under-19s.
