West Ham technical director Steidten asked to stay away from first team
German is involved in hiring new manager for next seasonDecision to restrict access instigated by David Moyes
West Ham’s hunt for a new manager has resulted in Tim Steidten, the technical director, being asked to stay away from David Moyes and the first team for the rest of the season.
Steidten is heavily involved in the hunt for a replacement for Moyes, who is set to depart when his contract expires this summer, and that has led to growing unease behind the scenes. West Ham’s desire to make a managerial change is an open secret and they have held talks with Julen Lopetegui, Hansi Flick and Sporting’s Rúben Amorim.
