West Ham Considering Managerial Options as David Moyes Future Uncertain

West Ham are actively preparing for the possibility of manager David Moyes leaving the club at the end of the season by conducting due diligence on potential replacements. Among the managers being considered are Ruben Amorim, the current head coach of Sporting Lisbon, and Julen Lopetegui, the former boss of Wolves.

Reports surfaced on Monday suggesting that talks had already taken place with Amorim, who is also reportedly a target for Liverpool. However, West Ham has chosen not to comment on these reports. With Moyes’ contract set to expire this summer and the manager yet to make a decision on his future, the club is exploring all options for the upcoming season.

Despite Moyes guiding West Ham to Europa Conference League success last season, the team’s recent form has been inconsistent, with a heavy 5-2 defeat to Crystal Palace denting their hopes of European qualification for next season. With just four games remaining, including tough fixtures against Liverpool, Chelsea, and Manchester City, the club is facing a crucial period.

If Moyes does depart, it is likely that technical director Tim Steidten’s influence at the club will increase. Steidten, who was appointed in 2023, is responsible for the club’s player recruitment strategy. The potential move for Amorim is seen as ambitious, given his success at Sporting and interest from other top clubs like Liverpool and Bayern Munich.

As West Ham continues to evaluate their options for the future, the club’s fans will be eagerly awaiting news on Moyes’ decision and any potential managerial changes that may follow. Stay tuned for updates as the situation develops.
