David Moyes has parted ways with West Ham at the end of the previous football season. However, recent developments suggest that he may be open to a potential third stint as the club's manager. The Scottish coach has expressed his willingness to return to the London Stadium, as reported by the club's hierarchy. This news comes after Julen Lopetegui took over as Moyes' replacement, but unfortunately, the Spaniard's time in charge has been nothing short of a disaster. Despite West Ham's hefty spending of £130 million on transfers last summer, Lopetegui's performance has not been up to par. In fact, if the Hammers fail to secure a victory against Wolves this weekend, it is highly likely that he will be sacked.
As expected, the club has already begun considering potential replacements for Lopetegui. One of the names on their list is former Chelsea manager, Graham Potter. However, if the board's priority is to stabilize the team, the idea of bringing back Moyes must be enticing. The experienced coach has previously had two stints in East London, the first of which lasted less than a year before he departed in 2018. He then returned a year later, and during his second stint, he managed to win the Europa Conference League. However, his tactics and style of play did not always sit well with the fans.
According to reports from The Sun, Moyes has made it clear to West Ham's board that he is open to returning to the club, even if it means signing a short-term deal. At 61 years old, he feels that he has unfinished business at West Ham and was dissatisfied with how he was treated towards the end of his second stint. Currently, the Hammers are in 14th place in the table, with a six-point cushion from the relegation zone. In other news, it has been revealed that Manchester United's chief will be taking over Dan Ashworth's duties following his unexpected departure.
