West Ham will not be cancelling Joe Hart’s loan agreement as is being speculated by some media outlets.

Reports have emerged that Rafa Benitez in particular would be keen to take the England goalkeeper to Newcastle but it’s not going to happen.

Hart has been at the centre of some vicious criticism this season but was in brilliant form during yesterday’s FA Cup Third Round at Shrewsbury making several saves to keep the League one team at bay.

But even tonight there is fresh speculation that David Moyes is set to make a decision on his future. However, we have learned there is no chance whatsoever of the stopper leaving the London Stadium.

Such a move would need to be agreed by the Hammers and sanctioned by Hart’s parent club Manchester City but in fact there has been no discussion inside the club about such a move.

And we were told:  “Joe won’t be going anywhere this month. We need two top class keepers . It’s as simple as that.”
