Stuart Pearce is thrilled about his return to West Ham United.

The former right-back has joined David Moyes' backroom staff, having worked with the Scot at London Stadium in 2018.

"I'm delighted to be back," Pearce told the club's website. "It's a great opportunity and I'm really looking forward to working with David and Alan, the staff and the players as we aim to build on a positive end to last season for the club's supporters who, of course, I know very well with this being my third spell at Hammers.

"I've spoken directly with David Sullivan and Karren Brady and I had extremely positive conversations with both of them - they were enthusiastic about me returning. It says a lot about them that I'm at West Ham again.

"I wouldn't be back if I didn't believe in the strategy the club, board and the manager have put in place, to take this great football club forward. I thoroughly enjoyed my time at the club on both previous occasions and I can't wait to get started again."
