Legendary manager is said to be open to a move to West Ham.

While signing successful managers hasn’t always worked out for them, there’s some that West Ham simply could not turn down.

The majority of managers have periods of success, like Manuel Pellegrini did, but end up fading out. However, the best of the best stay winners for their whole career and they’re the managers clubs are desperate to appoint.

Shockingly, it seems like the Hammers may just be able to get their hands on one of those elusive ‘elite’ managers.

According to The Boot Room, Jose Mourinho is keen on a return to the Premier League following a controversial start to life in Turkey.

The Portuguese gaffer has won 26 trophies throughout his career and would be an excellent appointment by the Hammers, even if he does play a more defensive style.

However, the report does claim that both Newcastle and Everton are also interested in bringing him if they sack their respective managers. If our Irons want to bring in the special one, they’ll have to act fast.
