West Ham youngster George Moncur has followed in his father's footsteps by signing a professional contract with the club. The son of former Hammers star George Moncur, who turned 17 last month, has been rewarded for his displays for the under-18s and Alex Dyer's reserve team with a two-year deal. Midfielder Moncur told his club's official website: "I found out a couple of weeks ago when Alex Dyer had a word with me after training. "I told my Dad and he was really happy and told me to work hard and keep doing well. "It helps so much to have a dad who has been through the same experiences himself. He tells me lots and I've just got to take it all on board and listen to what he says."
