According to the Daily Mail, West Ham United boss Manuel Pellegrini will not leave the London Stadium, despite links with Barcelona.

Ernesto Valverde’s job at Barca is looking very precarious, and Pellegrini has been touted as a potential replacement.

However, sources close to the West Ham boss insist that he has no interest in leaving the London Stadium.

West Ham finished the season strongly, and Pellegrini is excited about the potential of the London club.

The Chilean boss, who is on a £135,000-a-week contract (Daily Mirror) at the London Stadium, is already planning for next campaign and has no intention of leaving – regardless of who comes in for him this summer.

West Ham are set to back Pellegrini with funds in the summer, as they look to increase the quality available to him.

West Ham finished this campaign in 10th place, after beating Watford 4-1 on the final day.
