West Ham United Blog reported here a few weeks back about the club looking to sign Maguire from Irish club Waterford.

Maguire will now join up with West Ham’s Development Squad.

Irish starlet Maguire has caught the eye of West Ham’s coaching staff after impressing during a trial spell at The Boleyn.

18-year-old Sean Maguire has been attracting the interest of a host of other clubs after his impressive displays with Waterford United over the past year.

Maguire scored 12 goals in 24 starts for Waterford this term and he is regarded as one of the best young prospects to emerge from Ireland in recent years.

I don’t confess to know much about the Sean Maguire but more exciting young talent for the club can’t be a bad thing.
