Randolph looks set to make his first appearance under the new contract this week as West Ham look towards a Europa League crunch tie against NK Domzale on Thursday and a Betway Cup fixture against Juventus the following Sunday.
Speaking after the deal was agreed, a delighted Darren Randolph said:
"I’ve had a good first year at West Ham and this is another positive thing to happen to me at the end of a good first season and a good summer with Ireland. It has gone better than I could have ever expected at West Ham since I joined last summer, playing as many games as I did and then starting for Ireland in the Play-off and at Euro 2016."
"While travelling is enjoyable, it is good to be back into the routine and training every day in familiar surroundings. Rush Green has a nice feel to it."
