West Ham appoint Nuno after sacking Potter

West Ham have appointed former Nottingham Forest manager Nuno Espirito Santo as head coach after sacking Graham Potter.

Nuno, 51, has signed a three-year contract with the Hammers and will take charge of his first match on Monday away at Everton in the Premier League.

Potter was dismissed on Saturday morning after only eight months in charge, with the club 19th in the table.

Nuno joins West Ham after being sacked on 9 September by Forest, who he guided to seventh in the Premier League last season, their highest finish since 1994-95.

He led Nottingham Forest to European qualification via a seventh-place Premier League finish and the FA Cup semi-finals last season, but was sacked earlier this month after a public fall-out with owner Evangelos Marinakis.

“I am very pleased to be here and very proud to be representing West Ham United.

“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,” he said.
