Numerous press reports are already circulating about the possibility of Portuguese coach Nuno Espirito Santo returning to coaching in the Premier League after his recent dismissal from Nottingham Forest.

The pressure is mounting at West Ham United, where the future of manager Graham Potter appears to be hanging by a thread. According to a report from BBC Sport, the club's hierarchy is already weighing a potential successor, with former Nottingham Forest manager Nuno Espirito Santo emerging as a serious candidate should a change in the dugout be made.

The root of the brewing storm is the team’s disastrous start to the Premier League season. With a meager return of just three points from their opening four fixtures, the Hammers find themselves plunged into the relegation zone, languishing in 18th place. This dismal form has left the board deeply dissatisfied and reportedly running out of patience.

It is believed that Potter has been granted a brief and critical reprieve. His fate is now said to hinge on the outcome of the team’s next two matches. Should the results fail to meet expectations, the club is prepared to act, setting the stage for a potential swift and decisive managerial change.
