Moyes still tracking his favourite target

From all we are hearing David Moyes remains very keen indeed to bring Jesse Lingard back to the club.

It seems that I couldn’t have got it more wrong when I write yesterday that he’s not a player I’d want to see back at the London Stadium.

Mine was an emotional response to his apparent unreadiness to commit to the Hammers after he shot back to prominence with us during his loan spell last season.

With Nikola Vlasic looking better with each brief outing the argument was that the Croatian should get his chance when other positions needed more urgent recruitment attention perhaps.

Well, it seems that the manager disagrees with all of that with a key insider telling us that he remains very keen on the Manchester United attacking midfielder.

Whether he can persuade his father/agent that the London Stadium is his next destination remains to be seen but he is continuing to pursue the option apparently.

Our source simply said: “He loves Jesse and is working hard to get him back into the club.”.
