Potter could be relieved of his duties soon after West Ham suffered their fourth Premier League defeat in five matches against Crystal Palace on Saturday. The Hammers are struggling in the relegation zone and have also exited the Carabao Cup at the second round stage after losing to Wolves.
Following their home defeat to Palace, the West Ham hierarchy has started to consider their options to replace Potter and have spoken to ex-Forest boss Nuno, according to The Times. The report adds that former Wolves boss Gary O’Neil and Slaven Bilic, who managed the Hammers between 2015 and 2017, are also on their shortlist of potential head coaches.
Former West Ham scout Mick Brown had earlier recommended Jose Mourinho as Potter’s replacement, however, the legendary coach has since taken charge of Portuguese giants Benfica.
West Ham next face Everton away in a Premier League fixture on September 29. A loss could see Potter relieved of his duties.
