West Ham boss David Moyes is very much behind all of the club's summer transfer business, according to a reliable club insider...

What's the word?

ExWHUemployee delivered an exciting claim during a recent episode of his 'The West Ham Way' podcast, where he revealed that the 58-year-old is a major part of all negotiations.

"I think the fans will like this," he said.

"David Moyes has said that any negotiations with the likes of Will Salthouse, he wants to be directly involved. He wants no negotiations with agents to go on without him having some say in it, which I admire and I think is definitely the right thing to happen."

A positive sign

This is another hugely encouraging sign that the Irons are becoming a very differently run outfit.

During an interview with the Daily Mail last year, Moyes delivered a warning to the club's owners, GSB, that they were far behind their rivals in the recruitment department.

"We have a small recruitment department and that has to be addressed because that is not the situation at any other club," he claimed. "We have to put that in place. We have to have a professional ethic about how we go about our business."

However, since the end of last season, things have started to change, with the Scot being trusted to build his own scouting and recruitment network, in which he has hired his own son, David Moyes Jnr.

In the past, the Hammers have had some calamitous sporting directors like Mario Hussilos, who has been responsible for signings like Felipe Anderson and Sebastien Haller, whilst there has often been a reliance on GSB's preferred agents, including clientele, who has a plethora of clientele at the London Stadium.

His agency, Unique Sports Management, has Said Benrahma, Michail Antonio, Aaron Cresswell, Ryan. Fredericks and Darren Randolph on the books, so evidently there has been some questionable decision-making.

But now, it seems as if Moyes has been trusted with complete control and this should give West Ham a massive boost from here on out. And as Ex says, it will leave fans absolutely buzzing.

The 58-year-old signed a three-year contract extension in the summer and has been rewarded with actions on his demands.

With the Irons closing in on the signing of Nikola Milenkovic from Fiorentina, it's surely a matter of time before Moyes lands his next target, another player he will have undoubtedly asked for personally.
