West Ham news: Graham Potter sacking confirmed
"Results and performances over the course of the second half of last season and the start of the 2025/26 season have not matched expectations, and the Board of Directors believe that a change is necessary in order to help improve the team's position in the Premier League as soon as possible. The Club can confirm that Assistant Coach Bruno Saltor, First Team Coaches Billy Reid and Narcis Pelach, Lead Goalkeeper Coach Casper Ankergren, and Goalkeeper Coach Linus Kandolin have also left with immediate effect."
"West Ham United can confirm that Head Coach Graham Potter has left the Club. The Board would like to thank Graham and his coaching staff for their hard work during their time with the Hammers and wish them every success for the future. The process of appointing a replacement is underway. The Club will be making no further comment at this time."
"The 51-year-old is available after being surprisingly sacked by Nottingham Forest just three matches into the new season, with his final match in charge at the City Ground having been a 3-0 defeat to The Hammers. It makes sense for Potter to be let go, given that his relationship with the West Ham supporters had completely broken down. His eight months in charge were not great, but he will back himself to succeed at his new job."
Graham Potter has been relieved of his duties as West Ham head coach after a poor start to the 2025/26 Premier League season and Carabao Cup exit. Potter was appointed in January and oversaw disappointing results and performances in the latter half of last season and the current campaign. The club confirmed the departures of assistant coach Bruno Saltor, first-team coaches Billy Reid and Narcis Pelach, lead goalkeeper coach Casper Ankergren, and goalkeeper coach Linus Kandolin. The Board said a change was necessary to improve the team's league position and thanked the coaching staff. Reports indicate Nuno Espírito Santo is lined up as successor; he became available after leaving Nottingham Forest.
