West Ham are yet to complete a signing this month under David Moyes, with Newcastle sniffing around Joe Hart.

According to ESPN, West Ham United manager David Moyes is set to make a decision on Joe Hart’s future at the London Stadium with Newcastle United said to be interested in the England stopper.

The 30-year-old made only his second appearance since November 29 on Saturday, as he captained the Hammers’ side and gained his fourth clean sheet for the east Londoners during a 0-0 draw against Shrewsbury Town.

England international Hart has failed to appear for the Hammers in the Premier League since Adrian replaced the Manchester City loanee against Hart’s parent club, and the Spaniard has remained between the sticks since.

With Gareth Southgate eagerly watching Hart’s development as well as a number of England fringe players around the country, the former Torino loanee will be desperate for first-team football to prove he deserves to be on the plane to Russia.

However, he remains second-choice at West Ham and that could see him tempted to cancel his loan at the London Stadium early in order to push through a move to a side where first-team football is guaranteed.

The report claims Moyes will have the final say on Hart’s future, but with the report stating that Newcastle are interested, Hart will have to plead with his manager to cancel his loan if Newcastle can secure a deal to bring him to St. James’ Park.
