West Ham are being reported as being ready to allow David Moyes to decide his own future at the club if he leads it to triumph in the Europa Conference League.

The manager has been under pressure for months but has maiontained the support of the board despite the team’s poor Premier League form.

Similarly, the Hammers, who are considering Tim Steidten for their new director of football role, have also been profiling potential candidates for a new boss this summer according to the Daily Mail.

Marco Silva, Graham Potter, Brendan Rodgers and Paulo Fonseca are among the managers West Ham have considered.

However, the run to the Europa Conference League final has seen that plan reach a standstill.

But it is likely Moyes will have the opportunity to see out the final year of his contract if West Ham win only their second European trophy in their history.

Meanwhile, the club are pushing ahead with their plan to appoint a director of football with former Bayer Leverkusen chief Steidten among the contenders.

Other contenders include Lee Dykes of Brentford and Paul Mitchell, who is leaving his role at Monaco.

The new appointment will work alongside sporting director Mark Noble. The planned restructuring could have an impact on Moyes’ future as it could see him unable to have full control over transfers and new arrivals..
