West Ham manager Nuno Espirito Santo is reportedly fighting to save his job just months after taking charge at the London Stadium.
After guiding Nottingham Forest to a respectable place in the league and securing European qualification in the 2024/2025 season, Nuno’s reputation soared.
However, the new season started in dramatic fashion when he was surprisingly sacked by Forest in early September after the relationship with the club owner broke down, despite his success on the pitch.
Nuno was not out of a job for long and West Ham were quick to pounce on him after sacking Graham Potter.
Just two months into his role, it is already suggested that the Portuguese manager is under pressure at the club after a mixed start at the London club.
