West Ham United have been linked with Maurizio Sarri as Slaven Bilic’s replacement.
According to The Express, West Ham United have identified Napoli coach Maurizio Sarri as a potential replacement for Slaven Bilic.
The Croat is under fierce pressure to turn things around at West Ham, who have lost all three of their Premier League games this season, conceding 10 times in the process.
Naturally, there are rumours that the Irons’ hierarchy has already begun the process of replacing Bilic, whose side host Huddersfield Town on Monday in their first home game.
And The Express claim that Sarri is a leading contender to succeed the former Besiktas boss – whose contract expires next summer – in East London, if the club do indeed part company with him.
The 58-year-old led Napoli to Champions League qualification last season after securing a second-placed finish in Serie A, finishing nine points behind champions Juventus.
And it seems like many West Ham fans are fully on board with the prospect of seeing him take over from Bilic.
