Yarmolenko a disaster?<\/h3>\n<p>When West Ham signed the Ukraine captain from Borussia Dortmund on a deal worth <a

ago, it was seen as something of a coup by the Hammers.<\/p>\n<p>He was only 28 at the time and had shone with Dynamo Kyiv in his home country, notching a remarkable <a href=\"https:\/\/www.transfermarkt.co.uk\/andriy-yarmolenko\/leistungsdatendetails\/spieler\/69015\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\">137 goals and 90 assists<\/a> in 340 appearances for

for the Hammers, his goal record on English soil was far less impressive, as in <a href=\"https:\/\/www.transfermarkt.co.uk\/andriy-yarmolenko\/leistungsdatendetails\/spieler\/69015\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\">86 appearances<\/a> in West Ham colours, the wide man would manage just 13 goals and seven assists, which was a disappointing return from the forward.<\/p>\n<p>His lack of game time was perhaps the biggest factor in his signing going down in the bad books for West Ham, as injuries plagued him throughout his time in the <a href=\"https:\/\/www.footballfancast.com\/premier-league\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Premier League<\/a>, as he only <a href=\"https:\/\/www.transfermarkt.co.uk\/andriy-yarmolenko\/leistungsdatendetails\/spieler\/69015\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\">managed<\/a> more than 20 league appearances in one of his four seasons at the club.<\/p>\n<p>A ruptured Achilles tendon in his first season at the club certainly didn\u2019t help matters but it was arguably his plethora of minor <a href=\"https:\/\/www.transfermarkt.co.uk\/andriy-yarmolenko\/verletzungen\/spieler\/69015\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\">injuries<\/a> that prevented him from ever really enjoying a run in the team which may have frustrated fans, and no doubt <a href=\"https:\/\/www.footballfancast.com\/tag\/david-moyes\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">David Moyes<\/a>, the most.<\/p>\n<p>Last season saw Yarmolenko <a href=\"https:\/\/www.transfermarkt.co.uk\/andriy-yarmolenko\/leistungsdatendetails\/spieler\/69015\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\">muster<\/a> just three goals and one assist for the Hammers in 27 appearances in all competitions, so it was perhaps no surprise that Moyes <a href=\"https:\/\/www.whufc.com\/news\/west-ham-united-issue-retain-list\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\">opted against<\/a> giving the 33-year-old a new contract at the London Stadium.<\/p>\n<p>He would make the move to UAE side Al-Ain, joining a long list of players who make the move to the Middle East in the twilight of their careers, and has <a href=\"https:\/\/www.transfermarkt.co.uk\/andriy-yarmolenko\/leistungsdatendetails\/spieler\/69015\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\">contributed<\/a> an impressive eight goals and five assists in 22 appearances for his new side.<\/p>\n<p>Considering his lack of influence in the top flight during his time at West Ham, as well as the significant loss the Hammers made on his transfer, Yarmolenko must sadly go down in the history books as another transfer disaster from the east London outfit.<\/p>\n<p>\t\t    <!-- Article End -->\t<\/p><\/div>\n<p><script>\n        !function(f,b,e,v,n,t,s)\n        {if(f.fbq)return;n=f.fbq=function(){n.callMethod?\n
