Moyes has been charged with saving the 18th-placed club from relegation following the sacking of Slaven Bilic yesterday. The 54-year-old has agreed a two-and-a-half year contract at the London Stadium, and will take training for the first time today. The deal is understood to include a £2million bonus for steering the club to Premier League safety this season. And there will also be a break clause at the end of this season for the club or Moyes to walk away if West Ham are relegated from the top flight.
Moyes said: "I'm really looking forward to meeting the supporters, being in the stadium with them.
"I'm looking forward to seeing them getting right behind the team and my team also. We need the support, we need everyone with us.
"It's a big job we have in hand now but I'm sure with everybody together we can get the right results between now and the end of the season."
Moyes takes over at the London Stadium with the Hammers sitting in the relegation zone following their 4-1 loss at home to Liverpool on Saturday. His former Everton assistant Alan Irvine will join him in East London, where they will link up with former Toffees goalkeeping coach Chris Woods, who is already at the club.
