West Ham have emerged as a potential destination for a highly-rated head coach who is on the radar of Chelsea and Liverpool. The Hammers are seeking a replacement for David Moyes, who has come under fire following a poor run of results. Ruben Amorim, who led Sporting Lisbon to the Primeira Liga title last season, has been offered to West Ham. The 39-year-old is also admired by Liverpool, who are preparing for the eventual departure of Jurgen Klopp. However, sources indicate that Liverpool are still considering other targets, which could open the door for West Ham. Amorim’s departure from Sporting could lead to a domino effect, with Julen Lopetegui, Gary O’Neil, Vincent Kompany, Marco Silva, and Thomas Tuchel all being linked with the London club. West Ham are reportedly particularly interested in Lopetegui, who had a brief spell in charge of Wolves last season. The Spaniard is currently out of work after leaving Sevilla due to concerns over the club’s Financial Fair Play situation. The Hammers are yet to make a decision on Moyes’ future but are conducting due diligence on potential replacements. Amorim would be a significant coup for West Ham due to the interest from other major European clubs. However, the Portuguese coach may have reservations about taking over a Chelsea side with ongoing issues on and off the pitch.
