Randolph joins Middlesbrough
Darren Randolph has completed a £5 million transfer from West Ham to Middlesbrough after the arrival of Joe Hart saw him fall down the pecking order at London Stadium.
The Republic of Ireland international made 22 Premier League appearances for the Hammers in 2016-2017, helping Slaven Bilic's side finish 11th, but Hart's signing on loan from Manchester City left him unlikely to be first-choice in the new season.
Randolph joined West Ham on a free transfer after being released by Birmingham City in 2015.

Danilo joins Manchester City
Manchester City have completed the signing of Brazilian right-back Danilo da Silva from Real Madrid for a reported fee of £26,5 million.
The 26-year-old has signed a 5-year contract at the Etihad Stadium.
Danilo's arrival takes City's spending on full-backs past the £70 million mark this close-season after they paid an initial £45 million for Tottenham's Kyle Walker - a deal that could rise to an eventual £50 million.
City have seen a number of defenders depart the club since the end of last season. Aleksandar Kolarov was sold to AS Roma on Saturday, following Pablo Zabaleta, Gael Clichy and Bacary Sagna in leaving.
Pep Guardiola is understood to envisage using Danilo in a variety of roles, including left-back and defensive midfield, meaning he would not merely be cover for Walker on the right-hand side of defence.
Danilo joined Madrid from FC Porto in 2015, having arrived in Europe 3 years earlier on the back of Copa Libertadores glory with Santos.
He endured a tough time in the Spanish capital, where he became a victim of the Santiago Bernabeu's infamous boo-boys, forcing head coach Zinedine Zidane to regularly defend the player.
West Ham bring in Arnautovic
West Ham have signed Austria forward Marko Arnautovic from Premier League counterparts Stoke City for a club-record fee worth up to £24 million.
The Potters revealed West Ham will pay an initial £20 million, with an additional £4 million depending on certain clauses being met.
The 28-year-old former Inter Milano player joined Stoke from Werder Bremen in 2013 and scored 26 times across 145 appearances for Mark Hughes' men.
Arnautovic signed a 4-year contract extension at Stoke 12 months ago, but will now join fellow new recruits Pablo Zabaleta and Joe Hart at London Stadium.

Bernardeschi joins Juventus
Juventus have completed the signing of winger Federico Bernardeschi from Serie A rivals Fiorentina.
Champions Juve will pay €40 million for the Italy international, with the fee to be paid in installments over the next 3 years.
Bernardeschi signed a 5-year contract after completing a medical on Monday.
Fiorentina will receive 10% of the fee, up to a maximum of €5 million, should Juve sell Bernardeschi in future.
Bernardeschi's exit had been expected after the 23-year-old rejected a new contract offer from Fiorentina.
The winger, who scored 11 goals in Serie A for La Viola last season and had previously been linked with Inter Milano and Chelsea, will add to Massimiliano Allegri's attacking options after the loan signing of Douglas Costa from Bayern Munchen.
City spree continues with Mendy arrival
Manchester City have completed their latest big-money deal of the close-season by prising left-back Benjamin Mendy away from Ligue 1 champions AS Monaco.
The deal is reported to be worth in the region of £50 million, a similar fee to the one City agreed to bring in England right-back Kyle Walker from Tottenham Hotspur.
Mendy has signed a 5-year contract at the Etihad Stadium.
The 23-year-old helped a youthful Monaco side to the semi-finals of the Champions League last season, where they saw off City in a thrilling last 16 tie, and he was rewarded with a France debut in March.
Pep Guardiola has been keen to bolster his full-back areas after Pablo Zabaleta, Gael Clichy and Bacary Sagna were released when their contracts expired at the end of last season.
Mendy's arrival takes City's spending ahead of the 2017-2018 campaign over £200 million.
Riedewald reunited with De Boer at Palace
Crystal Palace have signed Ajax defender Jairo Riedewald for a fee reported to be in the region of £8 million.
The versatile 20-year-old has signed a 5-year deal at Selhurst Park to be reunited with manager Frank de Boer, who handed him his debut at Ajax in 2013.
Riedewald has 3 Holland caps to his name but was unable to nail down a regular starting spot under Peter Bosz at Ajax last season, having missed a chunk of the 2015-2016 campaign with a broken ankle.
He is the second arrival of the close-season at Palace, following the loan signing of Ruben Loftus-Cheek from Chelsea.

Hernandez completes West Ham switch
Javier Hernandez has completed his transfer from Bayer Leverkusen to West Ham in a deal worth £16 million.
The 29-year-old joins the Premier League club on a 3-year deal after completing a medical and agreeing personal terms.
Mexico striker Hernandez scored 39 goals in 2 seasons with Leverkusen and becomes West Ham's 4th signing of the transfer window.
Hernandez moved to Leverkusen from Manchester United in 2015 following a loan spell with Real Madrid.
He won the Premier League twice at United and helped them to the 2011 Champions League Final, where they were beaten 3-1 by FC Barcelona.

The Ligue 1 side appointed Claudio Ranieri as coach earlier this summer, his first job since being sacked by Leicester City.

He only made 22 competitive appearances for Lyon.
He is a Cameroon international with 72 senior caps under his belt.

Nice bring in Saint-Maximin from Monaco
Nice have signed France U20 forward Allan Saint-Maximin from Ligue 1 champions AS Monaco.
The 20-year-old has spent each of the past 2 seasons on loan at Bundesliga side Hannover and Bastia respectively, but now joins Nice on a permanent basic.

West Ham have signed teenage Montenegro international Sead Haksabanovic from Halmstads.
The 18-year-old attacking midfielder has signed a 5-year contract at London Stadium after joining for an undisclosed fee, reported to be in the region of £2,7 million.
Haksabanovic became the second-youngest player to appear in the history of the Allsvenskan when he turned out for Halmstads in April 2015 and made a full international bow in May this year, having represented Sweden at U17 and U19 level.
The Hammers start their Premier League campaign away at Manchester United on Sunday.
Senderos joins Houston Dynamo
With the MLS post-season approaching, Houston Dynamo have signed former Arsenal defender Philippe Senderos.
After playing for over a decade in Europe, the 32-year-old Swiss stopper joins the Dynamo, currently sitting second in the Western Conference.
Houston did not reveal the terms of the contract, but pending his obtainment of a US visa, Senderos fills their ninth and final international roster spot.
After a lengthy spell with Arsenal, Senderos has played for 7 clubs since 2008. His last stop was in Glasgow, where he made just 3 league appearances for Rangers last season.
In the first of those appearances he was sent off in a 5-1 thumping at the hands of arch-rivals Celtic.
Released in May, the former Swiss international arrives as a free agent.

He was loaned out to FC Sevilla last season, where he made 32 outings, but has been deemed surplus to requirements by Atleti ahead of the 2017-2018 campaign.

Vela to swap Sociedad for LAFC
Mexico international and Real Sociedad forward Carlos Vela will join incoming MLS franchise Los Angeles FC in January.
Vela, 28-year-old, confirmed his move to LAFC as a designated player via Twitter on Tuesday, ahead of the club's inaugural season in 2018.
Earlier on Tuesday, Sociedad had revealed an agreement was in place for Vela to swap Spain for the United States.
Vela will remain at Sociedad until linking up with LAFC - co-owned by NBA great Magic Johnson and Hollywood star Will Ferrell - during the January transfer window.
Vela has called Sociedad home since leaving Arsenal permanently in 2012, scoring more than 50 goals in La Liga.
Soldado agrees to join Fenerbahce
Roberto Soldado has agreed a move from Villarreal to Fenerbahce.
Both clubs have confirmed the deal, with the Turkish side reportedly meeting a €5 million exit clause in the striker's contract, with only final personal terms and a medical left before the transfer is completed.
Soldado is due to arrive in Istanbul on Wednesday evening, where negotiations will continue, but Fener say he has agreed to the switch in principle.
Soldado has spent 2 seasons with Villarreal, who he joined following an unsuccessful spell in the Premier League with Tottenham Hotspur.
The 32-year-old only scored 9 league goals in the last 2 campaigns and was restricted to 10 top flight appearances last season due to an ACL injury.
Prior to his £26 million Spurs switch in 2013, Soldado represented Real Madrid, Osasuna, Getafe and Valencia.
