West Ham United manager David Moyes admits talks are yet to take place with the four senior players that are out of contract this summer.
Goalkeeper Lukasz Fabianski, who has started all 28 Premier League matches he has been available for this season for West Ham , turned 38 on Tuesday and is among four players whose deals expire at the end of the season.
Midfielder Manuel Lanzini, right-back Vladimir Coufal and centre-back Angelo Ogbonna also see their deals expire at the end of the campaign. However, in the cases of Lanzini and Coufal, there are options in their deals to extend their contracts by two years, while for Fabianski, there is a one-year extension option in his deal. Ogbonna has also publicly stated that he would like to extend his deal beyond the summer.

Reports from Football Insider this week suggested Fabianski has entered talks over extending his stay at the London Stadium. However, asked if contract talks have taken place, Moyes said that with West Ham in a relegation battle, those talks have been put on hold for now.
“No, because we’ve been solely concerned with our league positions,” Moyes told football.london when asked if contract extension talks have taken place. “Hopefully we’ll be able to get some things done shortly.”
