West Ham are now odds on favourites to sign former David Moyes favourite Marouane Fellaini according to bookmakers.
Ladbrokes have placed Moyes to sign his former prized asset for an astonishing third time, putting Fellaini at as low as 7/2 to make the switch to the London Stadium after the New Year.
Moyes has previously twice signed the big Belgian midfielder, first for Everton when he lured him away from Standard Liege in 2008, and later to Old Trafford in 2013 when Moyes took over as the successor to Sir Alex Ferguson at Manchester United.
The Scot, who was appointed as West Ham’s new manager earlier in the month, will be looking to reinforce his squad in January after what has been a difficult start to the season for the East London club.
The Hammers have won just two of their twelve top flight games this season, and currently sit 18th in the Premier League.
Despite his almost comical reputation, it seems West Ham fans would be happy to see him come to East London …

I would, the question is why has he rejected a contract? If it’s money I’m not sure we can compete with Man Utd.

Everyone knows David Moyes loves bringing in players he’s managed before. In that case David, I will take Ross Barkley & Fellaini at West Ham please. No Pienaar.
