West Ham Considering Lyon Manager as Potential Manuel Pellegrini Replacement

West Ham are contemplating Manuel Pellegrini's future at the club, with Lyon manager Bruno Genesio the frontrunner if the Chilean is to be sacked.

The Hammers seemed to have pulled off a coup by securing the services of the former Real Madrid and Manchester City manager last summer, sacking David Moyes to bring in somebody they deemed to be capable of implementing a more attractive style of football.

However, results under his tenure have been mixed, and West Ham bosses have been somewhat underwhelmed by the 65 year old.

West Ham currently sit 11th in the Premier League, trailing Wolves - who are seventh, in the final possible Europa League position - by five points.
