Stevenage have signed goalkeeper Krisztian Hegyi from Premier League club West Ham on a season-long loan.

The Hungary Under-21 international has been with the Hammers since 2019 but has yet to play for the first team.

The 20-year-old has, however, captained their U21 side and made six appearances for them in the EFL Trophy.

Hegyi will provide extra competition for Taye Ashby-Hammond who has joined Boro on a permanent deal from Fulham following last season's loan spell.

Stevenage start the 2022-23 season with a trip to Northampton, who were also promoted from League Two last term.
