West Ham have moved swiftly to hire Nuno Espírito Santo as manager after sacking Graham Potter two days before facing Everton. Potter was relieved of his duties after nine months in the job on Saturday.
The London club said in a statement: “West Ham United is delighted to announce the appointment of Nuno Espírito Santo as the club’s new men’s head coach. Nuno has signed a three-year contract with the Hammers and will take charge of his first match on Monday evening when we travel to Everton in the Premier League.
