Indeed, as explained by Claret & Hugh, West Ham have fresh deals for some key players in the pipeline, with Coufal, Tomas Soucek and Declan Rice linked to being offered fresh terms.
According to sources in Italy, Angelo Ogbonna could also sign a contract extension, but now some big news has emerged on Coufal's situation specifically.
According to reporter Roshane Thomas of The Athletic, the Czech Republic star has put pen to paper on a new three-year deal with the option to extend it by a further year.
The 29-year-old was crucial to Moyes last season, averaging the joint-most tackles per game for West Ham in the Premier League and marking himself out as a real fan favourite.
Taking this into account, it's little wonder that numerous Irons supporters have absolutely erupted on social media upon hearing of his contract extension - one even called it the "best news ever".
Check out some of their best verdicts below.
