West Ham United manager David Moyes has been quoted by the club’s official website as saying that he has a “plan A” for next season, despite uncertainty over his future.

The former Manchester United and Everton manager joined the Hammers towards the end of 2017 until the end of the season, replacing Slaven Bilic at the London Stadium.

However, his future is currently in doubt with the Hammers yet to confirm that the Scottish boss will remain with the east Londoners beyond the end of the current campaign.

But with the Hammers in 14th place and six points above the drop zone, Moyes has almost completed what he is brought in to do – keep West Ham in the Premier League. He responded in his press conference when asked about his future.

“Of course, making plans are very difficult when you don’t know if you are staying up, but that’s the same for eight or nine clubs in the Premier League. I have a Plan A,” Moyes said, when asked if he was planning for next season.

West Ham play host to Stoke City on Monday night in what could be a crucial Premier League match come the end of the season, with Paul Lambert’s side currently stuck in 19th place.

Three points for the Hammers could see them climb into 12th place above Watford and Brighton if they beat Stoke, with Watford facing Huddersfield and Brighton taking on Crystal Palace.
