Director puts blame on West Ham for player’s poor form recently

Part of the reason for Andy Irving’s unsatisfactory loan stint at SK Austria Klagenfurt can be attributed to West Ham United’s inability to provide a clear plan for his future.

Günther Gorenzel, managing director of Klagenfurt, has criticised West Ham for their handling of the 23-year-old.

Andy Irving faces uncertain future at West Ham.

“But yes, of course the transfer does something to a player and it’s the same with him. Andy was still in the third German league two years ago. It’s a huge step for Andy, this transfer, and it’s done something to him.

“I am convinced that he will still play an important role in the remaining games, and we will see where we go but this all has something to do with a young player not knowing exactly where he will be next year.

“We will see whether he will actually train with West Ham and play or whether he will continue to be loaned out.”

West Ham United need to make their stance clear

It seems like Irving is going through a phase of uncertainty in his career.

The 23-year-old is unclear about his future and West Ham United have failed to clarify that.
