After becoming a free agent following many years as a Real Madrid player, Alvaro Arbeloa is heading back to the Premier League with West Ham. The 33-year-old parted company with Real Madrid in June, Arbeloa has immense pedigree both with Real Madrid and Spain, having won the World Cup in 2010. He was an understudy to Sergio Ramos but featured in the group stage and has amassed 56 caps for his country. Arbeloa started his career with Los Blancos but made his name at Liverpool having signed from Deportivo La Coruna.
