Football transfer expert Fabrizio Romano has played down suggestions that former West Ham manager David Moyes could be set for a return to the club.
The Italian insider has excellent connections with the Hammers and is believed to be an associate of West Ham’s director of football, Tim Steidten.
Quite ridiculously, in my opinion, Moyes has been linked with a return to West Ham as new manager Julen Lopetegui comes under pressure following a poor start to the season.
West Ham’s home form, in particular, has been the worst in the club’s history; however, away from the London Stadium, Lopetegui has remained undefeated in Premier League fixtures.
This has not stopped some mischievous observers from suggesting that Moyes could be in line to return to East London should the Hammers lose to Ipswich this coming weekend.
However, Romano has now waded into the debate to hopefully quell all speculation: “Despite West Ham’s struggles and talk of a possible return for David Moyes as manager, I have zero information on this—zero confirmation, nothing at all.
“West Ham as a club keeps supporting Julen Lopetegui and waiting for better results after many player changes in the summer. I have no info on Moyes returning or any idea, discussion, or contact so far.”
