It has been reported that West Ham United have decided against keeping Joe Hart beyond the end of his loan spell.

In comments reported by Football London, David Moyes has insisted that West Ham are yet to make a decision on Joe Hart’s future at the London Stadium amid reports that the Hammers have decided not to extend the stopper’s loan deal.

The Daily Mirror reported earlier this weekend that the Irons planned to let the 31-year-old return to parent club Manchester City at the end of the season when his loan deal expires, and they would not be seeking a permanent deal for the England international.

However, after watching his side get beat comfortably by the Cityzens on Sunday – in a game that Hart was ineligible for – Moyes claimed that a decision on the goalkeeper’s future would not be made for the time-being.

“That’s false information because nothing will be decided until safety is secured. That’s incorrect information,” he said, as reported by Football London.

While Moyes is adamant that nothing is decided, it would certainly be a surprise if the club were going to come to a different conclusion to the one that has already been reported.

Hart has had some bright moments, but has made several mistakes throughout the loan spell and has surely not done enough to warrant an extended deal for a Hammers side that will be hoping to go into this period of the season next year in a much more comfortable position in the table.

But with West Ham now just three points above the bottom three with three games left, Moyes – if the reports are correct – may be concerned about rocking the boat by confirming that one of the important members of his squad will not be at the club next season.
