The £17.5m signing from Burnley has made just two Premier League starts for the Hammers in 19 months.
Cornet was linked with moves to Crystal Palace and Nottingham Forest in January.
But he has remained with the Hammers.
Cornet’s face hasn’t fit at West Ham
To rub salt in the wound for Cornet, Moyes has bemoaned his lack of left-sided attacking options. And he admitted he tried but failed to sign a player in that position in January.
Such has been Cornet’s lack of action since joining West Ham, his absence from the squad went largely unnoticed for the 4-2 win over Brentford last time out.
Especially given talisman Lucas Paqueta’s long-awaited return to the Hammers side.
All sorts of conspiracy theories have abound regarding Moyes’ treatment of Cornet.
And that was the case again when it dawned on some fans that the Ivorian was not in Monday’s squad.
Moyes explains Cornet absence and it’s more bad news
That was perhaps understandable given the manager did not list Cornet as a doubt when discussing team news ahead of that win.
But now Moyes has cleared up the mystery surrounding the West Ham outcast’s latest disappearance.
