Graham Potter has signed his West Ham contract and will now succeed Julen Lopetegui, who was sacked by the club on Wednesday afternoon
Graham Potter has signed the contract which confirms him as the new West Ham United manager
West Ham have called a press conference for 9am on Thursday morning at the London Stadium.
Potter – who could take charge of a tough FA Cup third-round trip to Aston Villa on Friday – is set to return to management 20 months since he was sacked by Chelsea just seven months and 31 matches into a five-year contract.
The time is right for Potter
“He was waiting for West Ham to do what they have done and parted ways with Lopetegui.
“The timing works for both. West Ham need a bit of stability right now. It’s a good fit because Graham Potter wants a project. He’s ready to get back into mangement.
“I think the owners and fans will like his brand of football, the fact that he promotes youth, the fact he likes a progressive style.
