Baggies swoop for Moore
Related Articles
28 January 2008
The 22-year-old joined the Baggies on loan in February and made three starts and seven substitute appearances as they clinched the Coca-Cola Championship title.
Moore, who won his fifth England Under-21 cap in March's goalless draw with Poland at Molineux, has penned a deal which will keep him at Albion until at least the summer of 2011.
The deal also has included a further year's option in the club's favour and the eventual fee could rise to £3.5million depending on performance-related criteria.
Moore is a product of Villa's youth system and was a prolific goalscorer for their academy and reserve teams. Alongside brother Stefan, he was part of the club's FA Youth Cup-winning side in 2002.
Moore followed his brother into the first team reckoning at Villa Park and scored his first top-flight goal in the 2-0 win over Middlesbrough in March 2005.
The 2005-06 season proved his most productive in a claret and blue shirt as Moore scored eight Premiership goals in 16 starts, including a hat-trick at Middlesbrough in February 2006.
Meanwhile, Albion have also confirmed they are converting Do-heon Kim's loan move into a permanent deal after agreeing a fee of £550,000 with his club Seongnam Ilhwa Chunma.
The 25-year-old has agreed personal terms on a two-year contract with a further year's option in the club's favour.
Kim, who originally joined the Baggies on loan in January, will complete his move to The Hawthorns on June 1.
