Is Potter the right fit for West Ham?
Image caption, Potter has been out of work since leaving Chelsea in April 2023It has been 647 days since Graham Potter was sacked as Chelsea manager, and he's been out of work since.
Having been linked with a number of top jobs during this period, the former Brighton boss will now become the next West Ham manager.
Potter was in the frame for the England manager's role in the summer and has also been in the running for jobs at Ajax, Leicester City and Sweden.
He admitted his dismissal from Chelsea "hurt a lot" and, while he was only in charge for seven months, his stock has remained high.
