The Norwegian international, who joined the Hammers on a free transfer in the summer, has fulfilled his childhood dream by playing in the Premier League.

Havard Nordtveit comparred playing in the Premier League with taking part in a Hollywood movie. The 26-year-old joined the league from Borussia Dortmund and is living his dream.

He told 'Verdens Gang': "I'm living my childhood dream. When I started to look at the Premier League and the great legends who have played there, it's incredible to be part of it. It feels as if the whole world is looking at you - and they are indeed. That's Hollywood".

He became Norway's highest paid footballer of all time after joining West Ham but said: "I've not moved there because of money, but because it was my dream and because they wanted me".
