David Moyes lands new job days after West Ham confirm departure of manager

David Moyes has landed a new job just days after West Ham announced his departure from the club.

On Monday West Ham announced that manager Moyes will leave the club when his contract expires at the end of the season.

Moyes began his second spell in charge of the London club in 2019 and in over the four-and-a-half years since has become one of West Ham's most successful managers ever.

The 61-year-old ended the club's 42-year major trophy drought by masterminding last season's run to the final of the UEFA Europa Conference League, where his side defeated Fiorentina.

This season Moyes led West Ham to the quarter-finals of the Europa League, but undefeated Bundesliga champions Bayer Leverkusen proved a step too far.

In 2020-21 his side finished sixth in the Premier League table, the club's highest finish in over two decades.

Despite talk that the Scottish coach would be offered a new deal to stay at the club, a dip in performances since the turn of the year convinced club bosses that Moyes has taken the Hammers as far as he can, and that a change is needed in the dugout.

It has been widely reported that former Real Madrid, Sevilla and Wolves boss Julen Lopetegui has agreed to take charge at the London Stadium, but West Ham are yet to confirm the appointment.

What has been confirmed is Moyes' next landing spot, but it isn't in the dugout.

Moyes will enjoy some time out of the hot-seat, and instead will spend his summer covering Euro 2024 for talkSPORT.

The manager will provide tactical analysis on England and Scotland's matches, the two home nations that will be present in Germany.

Moyes will be joined by former England star Ashley Young and World Cup winner Emmanuel Petit, plus ex-Premier League manager Alan Pardew and Scotland legend Graeme Souness.
