A "hurt" Jarrod Bowen says now is not the time to think about his future after West Ham were relegated from the Premier League.

The Hammers did their part by beating Leeds United 3-0 at the London Stadium, with Bowen on target between goals from Valentin Castellanos and Callum Wilson.

But Tottenham's 1-0 victory over Everton means West Ham's 14-year stay in the top level of English football has come to an end.

Captain Bowen, who has a contract with the Irons until 2030, was asked what the future holds after West Ham's demotion by Sky Sports.

But he said: "Listen I'm under contract here, I've been here six and a half years, I've had some real high moments, this is a low moment that will outweigh everything. 

"There's going to be rumours, there's going to be talk, there's going to be nonsense out there. But ultimately what I see is getting this club back in the Premier League because that's where it deserves to be. 

"This is a really, really low moment but we have to bounce back from this, there's no other way. 

"I've been a big part of their Premier League campaign for six and a half years. You never know what the future holds, there's going to be talks, different things going out there, for the manager as well, the players as well, lot's of different thing. But I want to see this club back in the Premier League."

Had only results from Nuno Espirito Santo's first game in charge on 29 September this season counted, West Ham would have finished 16th in the Premier League with 36 points (W9 D9 L15).

Moreover, their 39 points is the most by a side to go down since both Birmingham City and Blackpool went down on 39 in 2010-11.

Bowen did his bit, finishing as the club's top scorer with nine goals, and assisting 11 Premier League goals this season, his most ever in a single campaign.

Only Paolo Di Canio in 1999-00 (13) and Dimitri Payet in 2015-16 (12) have more in a season for West Ham, and only Muzzy Izzet (14 in 2003-04 for Leicester) has more assists for a relegated team in one campaign.

He said it was difficult to pinpoint just one moment where it went wrong for West Ham, though.

"Right now, it's just hurt. It's a horrible place to be. Football gives you so many good moments in your career, and bad moments to go with it," added Bowen, who this week missed out on England's World Cup squad.

"Relegation for a club like this it hurts. We did enough today in terms of the result, over the season we haven't done enough consistently to pick up the points when we found ourselves in the position we were in.

"You can pinpoint many different things, ultimately when you go out on the pitch it's about players turning up week in, week out when things aren't going well and putting in consistently better performances, picking up better results. 

"Last season we were in a similar situation but managed to wriggle out of it, this season we haven't managed to wriggle out of it because we've been there all season. 

"It's not something that's just happened and it's fresh. Especially in the last couple of seasons when we've been really below the standards that have been brought in. 

"You could probably sit down and look at different things but ultimately this season we haven't been good enough and we've paid the ultimate price."
