Nuno Espirito Santo has been appointed West Ham manager after the Premier League club sacked Graham Potter on Saturday morning.
Potter only took the role in January and leaves with the club sitting second bottom in the table having won one of their opening five games and picking up just those three points.
A statement issued on the West Ham official website on Saturday morning read: "Results and performances over the course of the second half of last season and the start of the 2025/26 season have not matched expectations, and the Board of Directors believe that a change is necessary in order to help improve the team’s position in the Premier League as soon as possible.
"The Club can confirm that Assistant Coach Bruno Saltor, First Team Coaches Billy Reid and Narcis Pelach, Lead Goalkeeper Coach Casper Ankergren, and Goalkeeper Coach Linus Kandolin have also left with immediate effect.
"The Board would like to thank Graham and his coaching staff for their hard work during their time with the Hammers and wish them every success for the future.
"The process of appointing a replacement is underway. The Club will be making no further comment at this time."
William Hill made the former Wolves, Tottenham and Nottingham Forest manager Nuno Espirito Santo 1/20 to be Potter's replacement, but betting was soon suspended amid reports that he would be in place in time for Monday's trip to Everton.
And that proved to be the case, as West Ham confirmed his appointment on Saturday afternoon.
"I am very pleased to be here and very proud to be representing West Ham United," said Nuno.
"My objective is to work hard to get the very best from the team and ensure that we are as competitive as we possibly can be. The work has already started and I am looking forward to the challenge that is ahead."
