West Ham star's wife aims subtle dig towards Nuno Espirito Santo | OneFootball

Alphonse Areola has been in and out of the West Ham starting lineup in recent weeks, and his wife has now aimed a subtle dig at manager Nuno Espirito Santo.

The French goalkeeper is undoubtedly the best keeper at the club right now, but he has been dropped for Mads Hermansen in some of the recent matches.

According to Hammers News, Nuno wants a goalkeeper with better communication skills who can organise the defensive unit. He believes that a goalkeeper who can better organise the defence will help West Ham tighten up at the back. Areola has a shy demeanour; therefore, Nono has chosen to start Hermansen at times.

It will be interesting to see if the French goalkeeper can cement his place in the starting lineup once again. There is no doubt that he is a good player, but he needs to improve his communication to convince the manager that he is the ideal first-choice keeper at the club.

Areola recently won the Premier League, save of the month for January, and his wife came up with a subtle dig below the social media post for save of the month.

It will be interesting to see if her social media post has any impact on future selections of the French goalkeeper. He will certainly hope to play more often in the coming weeks.

Hermansen was signed as the first-choice goalkeeper at the club, but the Dane has not lived up to expectations. Areola will certainly fancy his chances of starting regularly if he can improve his communication skills.
