Former Nottingham Forest boss Mark Warburton has been appointed first-team assistant coach at Premier League club West Ham United.
Warburton was in charge of Queens Park Rangers last season, guiding them to a top-half finish in the Championship before leaving the club at the end of the campaign. He will now take up his new role when the Hammers return for pre-season training at the weekend and will join Billy McKinlay, Paul Nevin, Kevin Nolan and Xavi Valero on David Moyes’ coaching team.
“It’s a huge privilege to be joining West Ham United to work as part of David Moyes’ backroom staff," said Warburton. “West Ham have made incredible progress in recent seasons, continually making forward strides to move the club in a positive direction.
