In August 2026, West Ham United announced the season-long loan signing of 19-year-old midfielder Divine Mukasa from Manchester City. A former West Ham academy player, Mukasa stated, “I am just excited to play again. When I found out about the chance to come back, I accepted it without thinking.”

By September, Mukasa’s role at the club underwent a tactical adjustment. Following a strong performance against Derby County, manager Nuno Espirito Santo transitioned the England Under-19 international into a deep-lying playmaker role during a 3-2 victory over Bolton Wanderers. Mukasa noted that while leaving West Ham for Manchester City was a difficult decision, testing himself through loan moves remains essential for his development.
