David Moyes refuses to rule out sensational return to West Ham for third spell with Julen Lopetegui on the brink of axe
DAVID MOYES has refused to rule out a return to West Ham under the right circumstances.
The Scottish manager left the London club last summer, being replaced by Julen Lopetegui in the hopes of him engineering a more positive style of play.
However, seven defeats in the opening 14 Premier League games have left the Spaniard on the brink of the axe.
Moyes has spent two previous spells at West Ham, landing the club a historic Europa Conference League trophy during his second.
And with Lopetegui on the brink, a remarkable third spell at West Ham is possible in the right circumstances
The 61-year-old has told Hammers owner David Sullivan he is available for work but is happy to wait for the right opening.
SunSport exclusively revealed how Lopetegui’s future rests on the outcome of the clash with Wolves on Monday evening.
Gary O’Neil in the other dugout is also thought to be on the brink, seeing the game dubbed “El Sackico”.
Wolves have also made an approach for Moyes as they eye a replacement for O’Neil.
But Moyes has told Wolves chiefs he is not interested in discussing a move while they still have a manager in place.
