West Ham appoint Nuno Espirito Santo as manager after sacking Graham Potter - as former Nottingham Forest boss signs three-year deal at the club

Nuno Espirito Santo has been appointed as West Ham United's new manager after the London club sacked Graham Potter on Saturday morning, just two days before facing Everton in the Premier League.

Potter became the second managerial casualty of the Premier League season, following Nuno's dismissal by Nottingham Forest earlier this month.

Potter only lasted 25 games at the helm having come in to replace Julen Lopetegui in January this year and he leaves with the Hammers languishing in 19th in the table.
