BREAKING NEWSGraham Potter agrees a deal to take over at West Ham hours after Premier League side sacked former manager Julen Lopetegui

Graham Potter has agreed a two and half year deal to replace sacked Julen Lopetegui as new West Ham head coach.

Lopetegui was sacked by the Hammers on Wednesday afternoon and is now set to be replaced by Potter.

It is understood Potter will sign a deal until 2027. It is unconfirmed whether there is a break clause in the deal which can be activated at the end of the season.

Meanwhile, Lopetegui will be paid just over £3million by the Hammers owing to a compensation clause in his contract.
