West Ham boss Moyes explains passing on free agent Lingard

West Ham boss David Moyes has explained passing on free agent Jesse Lingard.

The former Manchester United and Nottingham Forest spent ten days training with the Irons hoping to win a contract.

But Moyes has explained deciding against offering Lingard terms.

"I am comfortable and relaxed with it (the situation)," said Moyes. "We like Jesse, but I don't know if we need another player in that position."

Lingard is now in Saudi Arabia training with Steven Gerrard's Al-Ettifaq.
