The equation is simple ahead of Sunday's final Premier League games. West Ham need to win against Leeds United at home and hope Everton do them a favour by beating Tottenham.
Anything less than three points will see the Hammers officially relegated to the Championship, while just a point will keep Spurs in the top-flight.
The odds are stacked against Nuno Espirito Santo's men to avoid the drop, and returning to the second tier for the first time since 2012 will have major implications for the club.
Several of their star players will leave, and that includes captain Bowen, who will be sold by West Ham to help ease the burden of their financial troubles.
According to The Guardian, Liverpool, Manchester United and Chelsea are interested in signing the England international this summer.
Bowen has eight goals and 10 assists in 37 Premier League appearances this term and is set to sit down and discuss his future after the final game of the season. Relegation to the Championship will all but guarantee his departure from the London Stadium.
