West Ham manager David Moyes has not yet decided on his future at the club, although he has been presented with a new contract. Moyes admits that his current contract expires in the summer, so he is unsure about his next steps, although he believes the decision is in his hands.
He could possibly follow Jurgen Klopp’s example and leave Liverpool at the end of the season. Moyes, who has been at West Ham for more than four years, said: “There is a contract for me.
“I’m the one who decided to wait until the end of the season to make sure everything is OK and focus on this season.”
“I have really enjoyed my four years. I will see out my contract. There are many reasons. I need to make sure it’s the right thing for the club, for me and for my family. I have spoken to the board. I have had a wonderful four years. We will sort it out, but I am happy to wait.”
Although he led West Ham to their first trophy in 43 years last season, Moyes has faced criticism from some fans after going eight games without a win.
But Moyes is happy with his team’s performances in Europe and is ready for the challenge against Freiburg in the last 16 of the Europa League. The Hammers have already won twice against the German side this season.
“We are looking forward to coming back and playing them again. They were the toughest team in the group. We have to come back and see if we can win a second time.
“I don’t think that makes it any easier. It was a tight group, the games were close. There is not much difference.”
Asked about the draw on Friday morning, the Scot replied. You try to avoid them as much as you can.
“But it’s a tough game [against Freiburg]. They’ve just beaten Lens, who were in Arsenal’s Champions League group, which gives you an idea that they’re a good team.
“The good thing about it is that we knew we were going to have European football after Christmas for the third year in a row, so we’re really happy. Once you get this far, you want to see if we can qualify for the next round. We’ve had some great years in Europe.”
