Crystal Palace have secured the £10 million signing of defender James Tomkins from West Ham.
The 27-year-old has signed a five year contract and makes the move from West Ham where he has been for 20 years.
Tomkins, who is Palace's third signing of the summer, told the Official Palace website: "I am really excited to be joining Crystal Palace, a massive club and a manager in Alan Pardew that I know well and will always be thankful for how he helped me develop in my younger days at Upton Park".
Chairman Steve Parish was delighted to secure the signing of the defender: "I'm really pleased James has agreed to join us, he's someone Alan has always wanted to sign from his own days at West Ham.
"I'm sure he is destined to become a huge part of our team as we look to build on the progress the club has made over the last six years.
"It's been a really positive transfer window so far, everyone has worked really hard to make these deals happen and I think we are much stronger because of them."
