Brynjarsdóttir, who has made 90 appearances for her country, scoring 28 goals, told whufc.com: “It’s a dream to be joining the club that I have supported all of my life.
“West Ham United has always been a big part of my life, so I can’t wait to get started and to help the team to reach the level we deserve.”

Hammers’ manager Olli Harder said: “I’m really pleased to have Dagný on board as our first January signing at West Ham.
“Team changes are inevitable at this time, but I am really confident that we are moving in a positive direction both in the mid- to long-term, while making the necessary changes to start picking up more points and climbing the table in the short-term.
“Dagný is a strong, athletic, dynamic midfielder and she will bring tremendous value on and off the pitch, and I can’t wait to see her thrive here at West Ham United.”
