No official decision has been reached, but it's reported that West Ham chiefs are preparing a change, and have started to consider alternatives.
Moyes, 59, guided West Ham to a record Premier League points total in 2020-21, and achieved Europa League qualification.
He followed that up with a seventh-placed finish and guided the club to a European semi-final, their first since 1976.
But things have taken a downward turn.
And though the Hammers are still in with a chance of winning the Europa Conference League, their domestic campaign has been atrocious.
West Ham are 15th in the division with 31 points and just four clear of the relegation zone having won eight matches all season.
Supporters and players have complained about his style of football with expectations far higher after a £160million outlay last summer.

But who will be the next West Ham manager?
Rafa Benitez is the frontrunner at 3/1 but could drift given he was viewed as a good short-term solution if results didn't improve.
Graham Potter is next at 5/1.
The Englishman is a free agent having been relieved of his duties at Chelsea, and the Daily Mail claim he's got many admirers within the club.
Potter has said he wants a break from football but it's thought West Ham may try to convince him to return to their dugout.
Michael Carrick, who's made an excellent start to first-team management at Middlesbrough, is offered at 6/1 along with Lille’s Paulo Fonseca.
Fonseca met David Sullivan when West Ham’s majority shareholder back in 2018 but lost out to Manuel Pellegrini.
Brendan Rodgers (7/1) is the last manager at single-figure priced, ahead of 12/1 quartet Jose Mourinho, Marcelo Bielsa, Mauricio Pochettino and William Still.
