David Moyes has expressed his lack of urgency in initiating contract negotiations to prolong his tenure at West Ham United, even though his current contract expires at the end of the season. Moyes, the former manager of Manchester United, has been leading the team at the London Stadium since 2019, and they have had a strong start to the season, currently occupying the seventh spot in the Premier League and winning their first two matches in the Europa League.

Despite the early season success and his previous accomplishment of guiding the Hammers to the Europa Conference League last season, there have been no discussions about extending the 60-year-old Scotsman’s time in East London, and he feels no pressure to begin those talks. Moyes mentioned in an interview with the Daily Mail on October 21 that he’s not in a rush and is open to the idea of a long-term extension, similar to what player Jarrod Bowen signed, but he’s focused on the team’s performance for now and will decide when it’s the right time to step down.

The situation at the London Stadium appears uncertain, as both parties seem interested in extending Moyes’ stay with West Ham but have not taken concrete steps to secure a new contract. However, Moyes himself doesn’t seem worried and is content to wait and see how things develop, prioritizing his team’s upcoming matches over his own future. This approach should prevent his team from being distracted by rumors about his future.

Moyes has certainly delivered good results during his time at the London Stadium, but there is also a possibility that the Hammers may decide it’s time for a change in playing style to make the most of their attacking talent. Since there’s still a significant portion of the season left to be played, a lot can change in football within a short span of time. As long as a decision is reached before the end of the season, there should be no cause for concern among the supporters, even though contract talks are not currently on the horizon.
