Reliable club source shares West Ham response as report sheds light on Ngakia’s future
West Ham United are enthusiastic to tie down the future of youngster Jeremy Ngakia beyond this season, according to Claret and Hugh.
It was reported on Sunday by the Guardian that the young defender had turned down a new deal and has refused to finish out the season at the London Stadium.
That was confirmed by the reliable club source, who claimed that the Hammers have still not given up hope over his future.
According to the report, Ngakia is still available to David Moyes for the games against Tottenham and Wolves.
After that, the 19-year-old is free to leave East London and pursue a move elsewhere if that’s what he intends to do.
It was confirmed that the future is looking bleak, and there is little hope of salvaging Ngakia’s contract at this moment in time.
David Moyes will clearly be disappointed with this turn of events, with the future of his youngest stars surely a top priority.
Ngakia has more than proven his worth in his four Premier League starts this season under Moyes, and if that isn’t clear then it will be the Hammers’ loss.
The youngster was at his best in his two outings against Liverpool. In a hostile clash against the runaway leaders, making five tackles and three interceptions according to WhoScored – impressive.
