Moyes, as well as players Issa Diop and Josh Cullen, returned positive tests on Tuesday ahead of West Ham's League Cup third-round match against Hull City at London Stadium.

West Ham were hoping for a negative test result on Thursday that would allow Moyes to return for Sunday's Premier League match against Wolves, but the positive test means Alan Irvine will take the reins again as reported by the Times.

West Ham did not immediately respond to a comment request as reported by the Times.

Moyes could return to the dugout for the Premier League clash against Leicester City on 4 October if he tests negative after his period of isolation, the report said.
