H2: Bowen marks a milestone

Jarrod Bowen celebrates six years as a West Ham player on 30 January — a period that transformed him from a promising Championship forward into the club’s captain and an England international. The 29-year-old joined the Hammers from Hull City in January 2020 and made an immediate impact, scoring on his first start in a win over Southampton.

H3: Early impact and European nights

Bowen’s arrival coincided with a difficult spell for West Ham, but he played a key part in the run of form that helped the club stay in the Premier League after the COVID-19 restart. He returned to action with four assists across a sequence of wins, contributing to 12 points from seven games.

He also played a significant role in West Ham’s European campaigns, scoring in the Europa League against Genk and Lyon as the club advanced to the semi-finals. His influence continued to grow both domestically and in continental competition.

H3: Landmark moments and records

Across his time in Claret and Blue Bowen has registered standout seasons. Highlights include:

  • Being part of the squad that beat Fiorentina in Prague to win the UEFA Europa Conference League, where he played as the matchwinner.
  • A career-best 16 Premier League goals in 2023/24, including his first professional hat-trick at home to Brentford and 20 goals in all competitions that season.
  • Passing 250 club appearances and, in January, overtaking Michail Antonio to set a new West Ham record for combined Premier League goals and assists.

H3: International recognition and leadership

Bowen made his senior England debut in June 2022 and represented his country at UEFA Euro 2024. In August 2024 he was appointed West Ham captain. Since then he has continued to contribute on the scoresheet, adding 14 goals and ten assists in the following season.

H4: Six years in reflection

To mark his anniversary, captain Jarrod Bowen sat down with presenter and West Ham fan Yani Ourabah for a Gogglebox-style interview, reflecting on his six years in Claret and Blue — the highs, the trophies and the personal milestones. The club has shared the interview and related video content on its official channels for supporters to watch.

Bowen’s progression from a 23-year-old signing with limited Premier League experience to an established leader and record-holder at the London Stadium underlines his importance to West Ham. As he reaches this anniversary, the club and fans alike are celebrating a player who has become central to West Ham’s recent successes.
