Nuno Espírito Santo sacked by West Ham

Portuguese coach Nuno Espírito Santo has been dismissed from West Ham following two home defeats in the Championship. The club's management believes a change is necessary to align with their goals and expectations. Espírito Santo, who joined in September 2025, replaced Graham Potter but could not prevent the team's relegation. Alongside him, assistant Rui Pedro Silva and goalkeeper coach Rui Barbosa have also left. The team will be temporarily managed by Mark Noble, Steve Potts, and Gerard Prenderville. Currently, West Ham sits eighth in the Championship with 22 points from 13 matches.
