West Ham have signed Switzerland international Valon Behrami from Lazio in a Ј5m deal.
Behrami, 23, can play at right-back or on the right side of midfield and has signed a five-year contract.
He started all of Switzerland's games at Euro 2008 and the Hammers had to beat off interest from clubs in England and Germany to complete the deal.
Behrami has 15 caps and was a regular for Lazio, playing for the Rome side in last year's Champions League.
