Premier League side West Ham United have kept their word by lining-up a strong squad for Sunday’s pre-season friendly at Blue Square Premier Grays Athletic (3pm).
The Irons’ travelling party includes their top summer signing Luis Jimenez, who has arrived at Upton Park on a season-long loan from Inter Milan.
Other top names who could be in action include England striker Dean Ashton, who missed most of last season through injury.
The full squad is: Peter Kurucz, Marek Stech, Danny Gabbidon, James Collins, Bondz N’Gala, Jordan Spence, Tony Brookes, Matt Fry, Holmar Orn Eyjolfsson, Julien Faubert, Jack Collison, Josh Payne, Kieron Dyer, Scott Parker, Oliver Lee, Daniel Kearns, Junior Stanislas, Luis Jimenez, Savio, Anthony Edgar, Zavon Hines and Dean Ashton.
A number of former Hammers will be greeted on the pitch at the New Rec prior to kick-off.
