West Ham want Nuno Espirito Santo to remain as their head coach next season, regardless of the club’s final position in the Premier League.

West Ham, it should be noted, are fighting to stay in the Premier League, a task made more difficult after the last round.

They are currently below the relegation zone, sitting 18th with 36 points, one fewer than Tottenham, who are the first team above the drop zone.

According to the Telegraph, however, West Ham are pleased with the work done by Nuno, who took over when the team was already in the relegation places.

The club’s intention is to keep the 52-year-old Portuguese coach until the 2026/2027 season.
