The Hammers are out of the FA Cup, meaning that they get some time away from competitive games.

And Bilic is keen to ensure that his side do not rest on their laurels during the break.

As a result, West Ham are set to travel to Dubai on a training week, and the Mail report that they have been told by a club insider that the training will be very tough.

Bilic is reportedly keen to put his side through their paces, to ensure that they don’t lose fitness or match sharpness during their time off.

West Ham may have little left to play for this season, but Bilic does not want his side switching off.

The Hammers are currently in ninth place in the Premier League table, and head into their match against West Brom, after beating Southampton 3-1 in their most recent outing.
