LASTUVKA PASSES WEST HAM MEDICAL
Lastuvka - is set to join West Ham.
Shakhtar Donetsk goalkeeper Jan Lastuvka is one step closer to joining West Ham after passing a routine medical.
The 26-year-old from the Czech Republic is set to join the London side on a one-year loan deal with a view to a permanent move.
Lastuvka has already had one spell in England with Fulham, although he was unable to secure regular football ahead of Antti Niemi.
"I'm glad it's turned out like this," Lastuvka told CTK.
"I am looking forward to playing for West Ham and I'll do my best to repay their faith in me."
Lastuvka is also relishing the prospect of working under fellow countryman Ludek Miklosko, who is the goalkeeper coach at Upton Park.
"It's a big plus. I think the co-operation with him can help me a lot in improving my skills," he concluded.
