West Ham have slammed reports suggesting that David Moyes will be sacked as manager of the club at the end of the season regardless of whether or not they are relegated.

Though Moyes has helped to guide the East London club out of the relegation zone since he took over in November following the sacking of Slaven Bilic, they have been in poor form recently and have not won during their past three games.

Following their defeat against Brighton last weekend, the club are currently in 12th position on the League standings and just three points above the relegation zone.

According to recent reports, things are intense at the club behind the scenes and they are even considering sacking Moyes at the end of the season.

David Wagner, Rafa Benitez and Marco Silva have all been linked with the club. The Hammers have however since refuted the reports stating, “The club would like to place on record that it categorically refutes the claims made by the Daily Telegraph regarding manager David Moyes.

“There is absolutely no truth whatsoever to this story. As previously stated on a number of occasions, the club and David Moyes agreed on a deal until the end of the 2017-18 season, at which point both parties will sit down and discuss the future.

“Until then, the board and David Moyes will continue to work closely together with the manager having full responsibility of footballing matters and the full support of the board. Everyone`s sole focus is on trying to achieve results for West Ham United.”
