West Ham United are reportedly ready to hand a new long-term contract to manager David Moyes.

The Hammers board only provided the Scot with an 18-month deal when he agreed to return to the London Stadium midway through last season.

However, the East London outfit are now one of the most improved sides in the Premier League, currently sitting four points adrift of leaders Tottenham Hotspur.

According to Sky Sports News, discussions are underway regarding an extension to the 57-year-old's contract.

As well as maintaining their recent trajectory, West Ham allegedly want to avoid a situation where Moyes is attracting offers for his services ahead of next season.

West Ham are on a three-match winning streak ahead of Saturday's meeting with Manchester United.
