West Ham manager David Moyes’ future beyond this season is under increasing doubt with the the process of identifying potential successors ahead of next season underway.
Graham Potter is among the coach’s admired at the London Stadium, but there are doubts over whether he would want the job.
Moyes’ position has been under scrutiny for much of 2023 following a difficult season that leaves the club just four points from the relegation zone - although the Hammers do have a game in hand over the teams around them.
But while the hierarchy have fallen short of dismissing Moyes mid-season, there is a growing sense that both parties will part ways ahead of the 2023/24 campaign.
