West Ham’s rise in form over the course of recent weeks has seen the Hammers open up a seven-point advantage over the Premier League’s relegation zone, allowing one eye to be cast towards potential summer business.
David Moyes has a stern task on hand to rejuvenate his underperforming squad and a big decision needs to be made within the sticks, as the Hammers search the market for a goalkeeper to become their new number one.
Despite a number of howlers this season, The Sun suggests West Ham are still undecided on whether to make Joe Hart’s loan stint from Manchester City permanent- giving the England World Cup hopeful one month to secure his football.
A mistake in Monday’s 1-1 draw with Stoke City has seen the stopper, who turns 31 tomorrow, come under immense criticism and he faces a fight to secure a spot in Gareth Southgate’s squad for the World Cup- and he could still earn himself a permanent switch to the London Stadium.
Whilst it looks increasingly likely that Hart will return to Pep Guardiola’s recently crowned champions, West Ham won’t make a final decision until the end of the campaign.
