West Ham fires Potter after 5 games of the Premier League season. Nuno lined up as replacement
- West Ham United sacked head coach Graham Potter on Saturday following a poor start to the 2025/26 Premier League season at the London Stadium.
- Potter took over as head coach in January with a contract lasting two and a half years, replacing Julen Lopetegui, but the team’s results and performances failed to meet expectations during the latter part of last season.
- West Ham sits 19th in the league, having lost four of five top-flight matches, exited the Carabao Cup after defeat by Wolves, and suffered three home defeats all against London rivals.
- The club announced that Potter managed 25 games in charge of the team, securing six wins, and confirmed that his coaching staff, including Bruno Saltor and Billy Reid, have departed as well.
- West Ham announced that the board feels a managerial change is needed to enhance the club's standing in the Premier League promptly and has already begun the search for a successor to Potter.
