Kovac is keen to play in the Premier League
|
Czech international Radoslav Kovac has joined West Ham on loan until the end of the season from Spartak Moscow.
Also linked with a move to Celtic, the 29-year-old Kovac, who was captain at Spartak, can play in midfield as well as central defence.
West Ham chief executive Scott Duxbury confirmed the club have the option to make Kovac's signing permanent.
Hammers boss Gianfranco Zola said: "He will give us competition in a midfield, which is already very strong."
Kovac brings a wealth of experience from his country's World Cup 2006 and Euro 2008 campaigns, while he has also played in the Champions League and Uefa Cup.

"I'm pleased to have Radoslav here," added Zola. "He has a lot of experience with the national team and I'm sure he will help us with what we are trying to achieve this season."
Earlier in the week West Ham beat off "fierce competition" from Europe's leading clubs to complete the signing of 19-year-old Brescia striker Savio Nsereko.
