West Ham boss Moyes makes clear his plans for Areola

West Ham boss David Moyes insists Alphonse Areola can have a long-term future with the Irons.

Areola has struggled for minutes during his loan from PSG.

But Moyes explained: "The main reason why we did sign Areola was that Lukasz Fabianski got injured several times in warm-ups last season and we just thought that if that was to happen again we had to rely on another keeper.

"Lukasz's form has been so good, he's played really well.

"But we also need Alphonse because he is a high level goalkeeper and we see a long term future for Alphonse."
