David Moyes hopes Jarrod Bowen can save West Ham millions by becoming their star striker for the rest of the season.
Bowen is set to lead the line against Freiburg at the London Stadium on Thursday evening, with West Ham needing a win or a draw to finish top of their Europa League group.
Defeat would send the Hammers into a two-legged play-off for a place in the knockout stages.
‘It may be a bad example but (Cristiano) Ronaldo started as a winger and eventually evolved into a centre forward. They’ve been assist-makers in the earlier part of their career and they start to want the goals. Jarrod can do both.
‘If he keeps scoring the goals it will keep him in Gareth Southgate’s mind.’
Moyes added he is in no rush to speak to the board despite his contract expiring at the end of the season.
