Ruben Amorim has emerged as a surprise candidate for the West Ham job after news that his Liverpool move is now unlikely.
West Ham fans seem to have lost faith in manager David Moyes as their season has petered out to a disappointing end.
The Hammers have won just two of their last 11 games in all competitions and have settled in 8th place in the league which will most likely be one spot off European football next season.
With Moyes contract expiring this summer, it is becoming increasingly unlikely that the club will look to extend his stay at the London Stadium.
Their heavy 5-2 defeat to Crystal Palace at the weekend certainly won’t have helped his case.
The Hammers have already started to do their due diligence on potential candidates and a name that might come as a surprise to many, Ruben Amorim, has emerged as the favourite for the job.
This comes after it was reported that his move to Liverpool which seemed all but done at odds of 1/6, is now unlikely to go ahead.

The Sporting Lisbon manager can be found at a best price of 7/4 (an implied chance of 36%) to replace Moyes as West Ham’s next manager.

Who is Favourite to Manage West Ham?
39-year-old Ruben Amorim is the favourite to take over from Moyes. He ended Sporting Lisbon’s 19-year wait for a title and is on the brink of his second league title with the Portuguese club since joining in 2020.
Behind Amorim is former Brighton and Chelsea manager, Graham Potter who has been out of a job since being sacked by Chelsea in April 2023.
Although his time as Chelsea will ultimately go down as a failure, his time at Brighton was very impressive, bringing them from relegation candidates to European hopefuls.
Potter is best price 4/1 available at Sky Bet and Bet Victor.
