# West Ham to end Fredericks interest following Moyes’ exit

West Ham are likely to end their interest in Fulham defender Ryan Fredericks following David Moyes’ exit from the club.

[The Sunday Express](https://www.express.co.uk/sport/football/962341/Transfer-news-Man-Utd-Spurs-Arsenal-Crystal-Palace-Newcastle-Leicester) claims that Crystal Palace now lead the race to sign the defender if the Whites are unable to clinch promotion against Aston Villa in the play-off final.

Moyes himself had been scouting the Fulham man personally as he enters the final stages of his contract with the Championship club.

Roy Hodgson has been stepping up Palace’s interest by scouting the player himself throughout the play-offs.

Fredericks, who came through the ranks at Tottenham, has been unable to agree terms over a new deal at Craven Cottage and is widely expected to leave if Villa win in the play-off final.

The 25-year-old has been a key member of the Fulham squad who have been pushing for promotion this season and will undoubtedly attract plenty of interest as a free agent this summer.
