The Hammers boss remains keen on keeping a loan star at the London Stadium, but accepts that a big call rests with the Red Devils
David Moyes is unsure how "realistic" a permanent deal for Jesse Lingard will be for West Ham, with Manchester United yet to make a definitive call on the midfielder's future.
The Hammers took a calculated gamble on the England international during the winter transfer window after seeing him frozen out of Ole Gunnar Solskjaer's plans at Old Trafford.
A spark has been rediscovered by the 28-year-old in east London, with nine goals and three assists helping him to become a Premier League Player of the Month winner, but it remains to be seen where he will be playing his football in 2021-22.
