Paul Nevin is set to join Patrick Vieira’s backroom staff at Strasbourg after becoming the second member of David Moyes’s coaching team to leave West Ham this summer. Nevin, who is expected to remain part of Gareth Southgate’s England backroom staff, has been influential at West Ham.
The 54-year-old asked for permission to leave after being approached by Strasbourg and the timing of his departure is hardly ideal for Moyes given that the Scot is yet to find a replacement for Mark Warburton, who left his job as first-team assistant coach last month.
