West Ham have no concerns that David Moyes could leave to return to Everton after Carlo Ancelotti forced though a return to join Real Madrid.

Everton are considering a move to tempt Moyes back to Goodison Park as they search for a new manager.

Moyes spent 11 years at Everton between 2002-13 and is highly thought of by Everton chairman Bill Kenwright.

But Moyes is close to agreeing a new three-year deal at West Ham after guiding the Hammers into the Europa League with a sixth-placed finish with their highest ever Premier League points tally last season.

Talks over a new contract have been ongoing for some time, while there is also the option of an extra year in his current deal.

Moyes has also been working on long-term plans to build on a remarkable first full season in the job at the London Stadium.

The 58-year-old is keen for the contracts of all his coaching staff to be tied up at the same time, while he is also on the lookout for a new No2 after Alan Irvine stepped back into a consultancy role.
