A David Moyes favorite is reportedly determined to fight for his place in the West Ham squad, even though the club is open to selling him.
No player embodies the David Moyes era quite like Tomas Soucek. Moyes relied heavily on him to contribute goals, work tirelessly, and consistently put in a shift. With 207 appearances under Moyes, Soucek has certainly proven his value, despite some challenging periods. However, he is seen as a quintessential Moyes player, and many believe he might struggle in Julen Lopetegui’s more possession-focused system.
Soucek excels at what he does, but his biggest weaknesses are ball retention and passing. With West Ham’s significant spending and their plans to bring in more reinforcements, the club is open to selling Soucek for the right price, as he may not fit the new style of play.
Surprisingly, though, GIVEMESPORT reports that Soucek has no intention of leaving the club this summer. He believes he can fight for his place in the squad and prove himself a valuable asset.
Regardless of whether he’s still starting material, you have to admire his ambition and determination—qualities that have made him a fan favorite. If he can adapt to Lopetegui’s style, he’s the type of hard worker any manager would love to have, though it’s difficult to imagine him fitting into the new system.
