# West Ham United: Hammers fans go wild for Conor Coventry update

**Flocking to Twitter, many West Ham United fans have gone wild for an update on exciting youngster Conor Coventry from a Rush Green source.**

The 21-year-old has been subject to [heavy interest from Peterborough](https://www.pressreader.com/uk/the-peterborough-evening-telegraph/20210805/284326842781492) over the last week as The Posh make a move to sign him on loan for the 2021/2022 season.

He has excelled in pre-season for West Ham and is widely regarded as the possible next big talent to come through at the London Stadium, drawing [some comparisons with Declan Rice.](https://www.hammers.news/club-news/west-ham-fans-shocked-at-how-similar-conor-coventry-is-to-declan-rice/)

When news broke of the Irons considering his loan exit for this campaign, there was plenty of [uproar](https://www.footballtransfertavern.com/west-ham-news/west-ham-united-hammers-fans-erupt-over-exwhuemployee-news-on-conor-coventry/) on social media given their lack of depth in central midfield.

Now, a West Ham source has brought news from Rush Green, explaining to[Football Insider](https://www.footballinsider247.com/sources-west-ham-pull-the-plug-on-coventry-move-after-moyes-u-turn/) that manager David Moyes has ‘pulled the plug’ on a Coventry exit.

Indeed, the Scotsman has apparently changed his mind on the talent and wants him in West Ham’s first team over what will be a long and gruelling campaign fighting on multiple fronts.

Flocking to this development, it’s safe to say many Hammers are ecstatic over the U-turn – find all of their best reactions to the news, in reply to [West Ham Fan Zone](https://twitter.com/WHUFCFZ/status/1423704661240995845) and [West Ham News & Views](https://twitter.com/WestHamViews_/status/1423646669942493187), down below.
