Frank McAvennie recently voiced his concern about the potential unrest Vladimir Coufal’s contract situation might bring to the West Ham United team and urged manager David Moyes to handle the matter carefully.

The Sun reported on January 1st that Coufal, feeling disgruntled over a contract dispute, is considering leaving the London Stadium. Although West Ham United has exercised the option to extend his contract, Coufal and his representatives are displeased with the delay in finalizing the decision.

It’s reported that Coufal perceives himself as vital to the team’s future and believes he merits a more favorable and long-term contract. Consequently, he is contemplating his options regarding a possible departure from the club.

Sharing his perspective with West Ham Zone, McAvennie expressed his opinion on the matter, highlighting the importance of securing Coufal’s desired contract. McAvennie noted the recent contract extension for Coufal’s close friend Tomáš Souček, suggesting that contract talks often coincide with an upsurge in a player’s performance. He emphasized the need to avoid unsettling the team and advocated for a fair resolution, provided that Coufal’s demands are reasonable.

McAvennie’s commentary underscored the potential impact of Coufal’s situation on team dynamics and emphasized the need for a judicious approach from the management.
