Cresswell’s career with the club will conclude after 11 seasons in East London. The left-back has made 365 appearances for the Irons and three caps for England. He was named Hammer of the Year in his debut 2014/15 campaign.

Fabianki also holds a Hammer of the Year award, again won in his first campaign. The 40-year-old Polish goalkeeper joined from Swansea in 2019.

Vladimir Coufal and Danny Ings will also move on. The four players having amassed more than 800 appearances for West Ham combined. Each were part of the club’s 2023 Europa Conference League success, as the Hammers won their first major trophy in 43 years.

On the exits, West Ham boss Potter told the club’s official website: “Aaron, Łukasz, Vladimír and Danny have been a pleasure to work with in my time here so far. All brilliant professionals on and off the pitch, with fantastic experience in the Premier League, and clearly loved and admired by their team-mates and everyone here at the Club.

“We still have three important matches to play this season. I know that their focus will be 100% on helping the team in any way they can in those games. But we felt it was important to confirm this news now, out of respect for them and the service they have given to the Club. It allows our supporters to show their appreciation at our final home match of the season.”
