Nobes has Hammers future all mapped out

|

Mark Noble has made it clear that he is ready to sign another deal which will keep him at West Ham as a player for at least another three years.

And beyond that he wants to become a permanent part of the club working in the Academy.

‘Old school’ Mark will join the likes of Steve Potts whose life became dedicated to the Irons when he finally ended his playing career.

Explaining his future Nobes declared: “My dream now is to finish at West Ham. I have one more year after this and a further year’s option.

I would like to sign that, finish playing and then perhaps be involved in the  academy. My son, Lenny, plays in the under-nines here and I get so much enjoyment out of watching him on a Sunday.”

Nobes is part of a dying breed – a one club man to his backbone – and it’s great to hear that he is ready to be a part of things way into the future.
