West Ham 'are looking to offer David Moyes a new contract in the summer' after the team's impressive start to the season... and 'admit they were wrong to let him go' in the summer of 2018 after guiding the east Londoners to safety

David Moyes is expected to be offered a new contract by West Ham at the end of the season as the Irons sit seventh in the Premier League.

The Scot returned to the club in December 2019 and is nearing the end of his current 18-month deal, having guided the east Londoners out of relegation difficulty to a 13th-placed finish in 2017-18.

Moyes' objective after taking over from Manuel Pellegrini last season was once again survival, which he once achieved once more, albeit by finishing in the less comfortable position of 16th.
