West Ham sacked Graham Potter on Saturday after only nine months in charge, with former Nottingham Forest boss Nuno Espirito Santo tipped to take over the troubled Premier League club.
Potter’s exit was widely expected after the Hammers slumped to second bottom of the table ahead of Monday’s trip to Everton.
Nuno is expected to replace Potter in time for the clash with Everton after reports the Portuguese coach has had positive talks with the West Ham board.
