Real Sociedad have confirmed West Ham managerial target David Moyes will remain at the club next season.

Sociedad President Jokin Aperribay told a press conference this lunchtime (Wednesday) that Moyes, who was one of West Ham's top targets to replace the recently-departed Sam Allardyce, would be remaining at the Anoeta Stadium for the foreseeable future.

"David Moyes has never spoken to us about this," he said. "If anything, we have heard these rumours from the media. He has never suggested the possibility to go back to England.

"We made an important decision last season in bringing in Moyes as coach of the first team. We don’t see the need to make any drastic changes.

"We don’t think that the club needs to make any more changes within the technical department because in general, the results we have seen during the past six years have been positive."

West Ham have now seen their attempts to land a string of managers fall by the wayside, since parting company with Allardyce. In addition to Moyes, Frank De Boer, Jurgen Klopp, Rafa Benitez and Carlo Ancelotti have all rejected the opportunity to join West Ham.
