The Hammers’ manager updates the team on negotiations for a contract extension, which is set to expire in the summer.
Negotiations for a new West Ham deal are “well down the line,” according to David Moyes, who also anticipates more developments when the January transfer market closes.
Moyes’ contract expires at the end of the current campaign, and it looked doubtful early on that he would be given a new contract.
Nonetheless, after leading the team to their highest-ever point total at the halfway point of a Premier League season, the Scot is now almost certainly going to sign an extension.
After leading the team to its first major trophy in forty-three years with the Europa Conference League title last season, Moyes also leads his team into the Uefa competition’s knockout rounds. The club’s Europa League campaign is scheduled to continue next month.
Since the transfer market has closed, the 60-year-old has reaffirmed that he will restart talks with the club’s owners early in the New Year, as he had said before Christmas.
“Now that the window is closed, we’ll resume our work,” Moyes stated. “We’ve progressed significantly and are continuing on.” We’ll go back to that in a few weeks.”
