Dean Ashton says West Ham will appoint a new manager this summer
I think the fact we’ve not heard anything yet makes me think he will definitely leave and they’ll bring somebody new in
Dean Ashton on West Ham
And Ashton believes that is a telling sign Moyes will be on his way out of the club.
“I think the fact we’ve not heard anything yet makes me think he will definitely leave and they’ll bring somebody new in,” Ashton told talkSPORT.
“I think he’s done a really good job. He was brought in to keep them safe - it’s as simple as that.
“He’s not been brought in to bring in fantastic football to watch, he’s been brought in to keep them up - and that’s what he has done.

David Moyes appeared to wave goodbye to the West Ham fans on Sunday
“I’m still not sure the supporters have taken to him, but you can see - especially yesterday - there’s a real base there.
“[There are] some great attacking players, but I think they need a few more defenders and they certainly need two or three midfield players, for me.
“But you can see there’s a nucleus of players there, where, whoever it is - David Moyes or a new manager - who comes in, they’ve got great attacking flair and if they can be shored up at the back and in midfield there’s no reason why they can’t have a great season next year.”
