West Ham want David Moyes to stay as their manager next season.
Moyes has another year left on his contract and talks will be held about his plans for next season at the end of the current campaign.
They are six points clear of the relegation zone with three games to play.
Despite reports that his job was on the line earlier this season, West Ham have always wanted him to stay and have never talked to any potential replacements.
Moyes: Good chance we don’t have him next seasonWest Ham manager David Moyes would ‘love’ Declan Rice to remain at the club but is ‘aware that might not be the case’ at the end of the season
Moyes this week admitted for the first time that there is a “good chance” Declan Rice will leave West Ham this summer.
Hammers captain Rice has ambitions to play for a Champions League club but has a price tag in excess of £100m.
Nevertheless, Arsenal, Chelsea and Manchester United are all understood to be interested in the 24-year-old England midfielder.
“We honestly hope he stays,” said Moyes, ahead of Sunday’s clash with Brentford.
“We’d love for him to be a West Ham player but we are aware that might not be the case at the end of the season.
“So that’s one of the scenarios around planning. There are plans that we have Dec here but we’re also fully aware there is a good chance we won’t have him.”
