Moyes set to be named West Ham boss on Tuesday

Published on: 06 November 2017

David Moyes is soon to be confirmed as West Ham United manager.

The Scotsman will succeed Slaven Bilic, who was relieved on his duties on Monday after collecting just nine points from the Hammers' first eleven matches this season.

Moyes managed Everton for over ten years before succeeding Sir Alex Ferguson at Manchester United. He was sacked before the end of the season and has since struggled in spells at Real Sociedad and Sunderland, the latter resulting in their relegation from the Premier League at the end of last season.

His first match in charge will be against Watford at Vicarage Road on November 19.

Prior to Bilic's sacking, Moyes expressed his interest in the job while working as a pundit in Doha.

The 54-year-old told beIN Sports: "I've always said I want to go back into club management and if the right opportunity comes around, then I'll be interested.

"I've been there myself, I know what Slaven is going through at the moment. He must be hating it and wanting to get a result as quickly as he can. If it becomes available yes, but at the moment it's not available."
