West Ham have become the latest English club to take a MLS player on loan after the London club took George John on loan from Dallas. John, 24, has moved to Upton Park, with the Hammers having the option to make the two month loan deal permanent when it expires in March.
John was close to a move to Blackburn Rovers last summer, but the deal fell through at the end.
John is yet to make a senior international appearance but is eligible to play for both the United States and Greece.
John follows in the footsteps of Landon Donovan, Thierry Henry and Robbie Keane, all of whom have joined Premier League clubs during the MLS off season.
