Axed West Ham boss David Moyes is eager to jump back into management.
The Daily Star says the experienced Scot is convinced his credibility has been restored through securing West Ham's Premier League safety, following a nightmare season at Sunderland.
Moyes, 55, suffered relegation at the Stadium of Light, then resigned when he felt he wouldn't have the resources to restore the club to the Premier League.
The former Everton and Manchester United boss believes he was proven right when the Black Cats suffered another humiliating relegation to League One in the season just ended.
But he is satisfied with the job he did at West Ham, where his remit was to keep the club in the top flight.
