Hammers ready to do a Moyes U-turn

CandH Exclusive by Hugh Southon

David Moyes has risen to the top of the West Ham most ‘wanted list’ over the past 24 hours.

Manuel Pellegrini’s sacking will be a formality if the Hammers can persuade the manager they allowed to leave before appointing the Chilean.

It’s very much forgive and forget time as far as they are concerned and they are hoping the Scottish boss feels the same way

ClaretandHugh has learned that although the 56 year old’s spell at the club finished ‘badly’ the Hammers board are now ready to bring him back to the London Stadium.

The big issue standing in their way is Marco Silva’s position at Everton with the sack appearing to be looming as the Toffees struggle in 15th position – one point more and one place above the Hammers.

Behind the scenes developments are moving fast at the London Stadium with the club set to contact not only Moyes but Chris Hughton whilst looking closely at Sean Dyche’s position.

Rafa Benitez is fourth on the list but it would probably take a sacking or a resignation from Chinese outfit Dalian Yifang for him in China to be a real prospect with a £15 million buy out clause believed to be involved in hi contract.

Insiders at the Hammers have made it clear however that if Moyes can be tempted into returning he would be the  board’s choice.
