West Ham have freshly announced the sacking of manager Graham Potter, just eight months into signing the 50-year-old from Chelsea. West Ham have had one of the worst starts to the season, currently placed
in 19th place on the Premier League table with just one win in their last five encounters. The club now needs a capable manager to resurrect them from their ruins.
According to a recent X post from Italian journalist Fabrizio Romano, former Nottingham Forest manager and Portuguese international Nuno Espirito Santo has emerged as the leading candidate to sign in as the new West Ham manager. He is expected to join the East London club with immediate effect after reaching an agreement with them. Nuno is looking working to working on the West Ham project and wants to help the team achieve the glory they desire.
Nuno expected to conduct his first training session with the team just hours after Graham Potter's sacking: Reports
Nuno Espírito Santo has reportedly arrived at the London stadium and is expected to conduct his first training session with the team today. The current poor condition of the team is where the expertise of Nuno Espirito Santo could come into picture as he is renowned for stabilising the team and creating much needed discipline inside the players. Earlier, Nuno finished in seventh place with a developing Wolves team and also guiding Nottingham Forest to a Europa League spot last season.
The board of West Ham reportedly appreciate the quality of Nuno Espirito Santo and feel that he is the only option available in the window who could boost their team's performances. It will be interesting to see how West Ham will perform with the Portuguese international as their new manager.
