Mark Noble twist on cards if Graham Potter doesn’t get first wish at West Ham.

Julen Lopetegui sack: West Ham compensation news emerges. West Ham will have to pay Julen Lopetegui compensation of £3.3million if they make the decision to sack him, according to The Daily Mirror. Matt Hughes reported in the newspaper’s print edition (8 January, page 57) that the Hammers would be required to pay a 12-month compensation clause equal to a year’s salary to terminate his two-year contract early. It is also reported that hiring a replacement manager until the end of the season will cost another £2million before bonuses, with that figure rising if the Irons go for a manager who…

West Ham told to bring ‘leader’ back to London Stadium. Martin Allen has urged West Ham to recall James Ward-Prowse ahead of the second half of the season. The midfielder was loaned out to Nottingham Forest in the summer, although his minutes have been limited amid Forest’s success, with the Tricky Trees third in the table. The 30-year-old has made just nine appearances during the campaign with only 18 minutes of playing time from his side’s last eight games. With the Hammers struggling under Julen Lopetegui, Allen has suggested that Ward-Prowse could be exactly what is needed in East London…

Here’s exactly what Graham Potter has told David Sullivan after being formally offered the West Ham job. So Graham Potter has formally been offered the West Ham United job it seems. But what hasn’t been reported yet is whether or not Graham Potter has actually accepted the role at West Ham. It emerged last night that the West Ham owners had formally offered Potter the job at the London Stadium. That news came after it was originally suggested that Julen Lopetegui would be given more time to turn things around. Lopetegui was an awful appointment in the first place. He…

West Ham make ‘formal loan offer’ to sign player – Purchase option would be included. West Ham United have made an attempt to sign Benfica’s Arthur Cabral in the winter market. The striker joined the Portuguese club from Fiorentina in August 2023 and managed 11 goals and three assists from 41 games last season. Bruno Lage replaced Roger Schmidt in September and Cabral’s game time has reduced since then. He’s clocked in 544 minutes from 20 games this season, managing five goals and an assist, and West Ham are ready to offer the 26-year-old an escape route. That’s according to…

West Ham sources share huge exit updates on Julen Lopetegui and Tim Steidten. West Ham sources have denied that Julen Lopetegui has already been sacked, according to Simon Stone. The BBC journalist reported on 6 January that the Hammers are yet to make a decision about the future of the Spaniard. While it is understood that Tim Steidten is no longer working at the club’s training ground, it is not because he is on his way out [talkSPORT, 6 January], but to allow him to work on bringing in new players in January. Stone wrote in the BBC on 6…

Graham Potter not a done deal with ‘genius’ still in the running to replace Julen Lopetegui after stunning sack news. Julen Lopetegui will officially leave his post at West Ham imminently it seems, after David Sullivan allegedly decided to sack the Spaniard. The likes of Graham Potter and Steve Cooper are allegedly being lined up to replace Lopetegui. The 7 WORST Football Club Rebrands A stunning report earlier today from talkSPORT claimed that the Spaniard has actually been sacked already.

David Sullivan has nowhere to run after £75m West Ham United news. David Sullivan simply must reinvest into the West Ham United squad during the January transfer window. The 4-1 loss against Manchester City on Saturday (4 January) leaves Julen Lopetegui on the brink of dismissal, and his future in East London will be dependent on the outcome of the FA Cup third-round tie against Aston Villa [talkSPORT]. However, the finances at the London Stadium leave plenty of wiggle room to strengthen in January – as per The Swiss Ramble (6 January), the Irons recorded a £57million pre-tax profit for…

As Julen Lopetegui sack talk ramps up, Mohammed Kudus throws a big spanner in the works. Julen Lopetegui and Mohammed Kudus have hardly been a match made in heaven have they. West Ham head coach Julen Lopetegui took over from David Moyes at the London Stadium in the summer. However, the Spaniard has seriously underwhelmed in his role so far, and his failure to get the best out of Mohammed Kudus has been the cornerstone of his struggles. Three months ago, Lopetegui hauled Kudus off at half-time during our clash with Brentford. After the game Lopetegui told reporters that he…

Forget David Moyes because West Ham fans should be more worried about who was sat next to him. David Moyes says he is not happy seeing his good work at West Ham being undone and yesterday he got to witness it in person. West Ham started 2025 as they ended a dismal 2024, by suffering another heavy defeat. The Hammers followed up the demoralising 5-0 loss at home to Liverpool with a 4-1 thumping at Man City. Liverpool could have easily beaten West Ham by several more. But perhaps more worrying was another pitiful collapse against a Man City side…
