Green backs 'proven' Parker for Hammers job
- Published
Former West Ham United goalkeeper Rob Green says Scott Parker's "proven record" of getting teams promoted from the Championship would make him the perfect fit as the club's next manager.
Parker, 46, is expected to replace Nuno Espirito Santo, who was sacked on Tuesday following West Ham's disappointing start to the season after relegation.
A three-time former club player of the year at West Ham, Parker has led Fulham, Bournemouth and Burnley to promotion as a manager.
"Scott's shown a proven record of getting promoted," Green, a former team-mate of Parker's, told BBC Radio London.
