David Moyes Returns to the Hammers

David Moyes has been re-appointed head coach of West Ham, after Manuel Pellegrini was recently sacked from his position as manager of the struggling club.

Moyes previously served as the Hammers’ coach on a short-term deal during the 2017-18 season prior to Pellegrini’s arrival.

Now, the 56-year-old Scotsman has agreed to coach the club – who are currently languishing in 17th place on the Premier League standings – on an 18-month deal.

Moyes commented on his return: “I enjoyed being around the stadium and I loved being in this part of the world, and I missed the club so I can’t wait to get started. I’m feeling very proud that I’m back here.”

West Ham joint-chairman, David Sullivan, added: “We are delighted to welcome [Moyes] back – he knows the club well and he built strong relationships during that time, which will be crucial for the work that needs to be done going forward.”

Moyes’ side will face Bournemouth this Wednesday, 1 January.
