West Ham United want to ramp up contract renewal talks with Tomas Soucek

Tomas Soucek, a 28-year-old stalwart for West Ham United, has to sign a new contract as soon as feasible.
Tomas Soucek will be a valuable member of West Ham United’s team for many years to come, according to Pete O’Rourke via Football Insider. Under David Moyes’ direction, the 28-year-old is a crucial member of their first team, and they intend to step up their attempts to keep him at the club.

 

In the winter of 2020, Soucek signed a temporary loan agreement with the Hammers, which was later made permanent. Since then, he has participated in 165 games and helped to create 35 goals.

One of the cornerstones of their team has been the 28-year-old. Although he prefers to play as a holding midfielder, he is also capable of playing in an advanced or offensive position.

This season, the international for the Czech Republic has already played in 10 games and logged more than 650 minutes on the field. Despite frequently playing as a defensive midfielder, Soucek has been in outstanding form and has already contributed to five goals.

Although he is a crucial member of Moyes’s squad, his deal expires in the summer of 2019. There is a choice to extend it another 12 months for the Hammers. However, they are eager to sign a brand-new contract with the 28-year-old.

The East London club hopes to retain him there for many more years. They also understand how much demand there is for his services. The negotiations for a new contract between the club and the player’s representation have been ongoing for a while. However, the reports state that these negotiations have recently halted.

The Hammers will entirely concentrate their focus to extending the tenure of Soucek now that Jarrod Bowen’s contract extension is complete. The 28-year-old still plays a crucial role in Moyes’s plans, thus the London club is set to step up its efforts to negotiate a new contract with him.

The Hammers will be forced to decide on his future if they are unable to make any progress by the end of January. And if offers come in, they might think about selling him rather than passing him up for free.
