David Moyes has put pen to paper on his new West Ham deal as he prepares to lead his team into Europe.
David Moyes said: “I am delighted to have committed my future to West Ham United. This is where I want to be and I’m happy. I’m excited to be given this opportunity to build on what we all have already achieved here. The owners and I are fully aligned with how we want to keep developing and improving the football club. The board and everyone at the club have been fantastic to work with, giving me great support and I feel that we are all united in what we want to achieve in the coming years and how we might be able to achieve those things. We have made tremendous progress in the past 15 months and that has been a collective effort from everyone at the club. The players really have been superb but the challenge is for our standards to continue developing. We must keep pushing boundaries for consistent improvement as we all aim to continue the growing of the club. I have said it many times before – West Ham United is a huge club, with a wonderful fanbase and stadium, and an enormous opportunity for further growth and success. I am really excited by the ambition that we have at the club and we are going to work as hard as we possibly can to keep moving forward and hopefully give our supporters many a great memory.”
The contract had been agreed in principle for some time but Moyes has finally signed the three-year offer and his backroom staff are expected to follow suit in the coming days. The manager was once again keen to state that West Ham are “a huge club”, and says he is excited about the ambition shown and the prospect of taking the club forward.
