Hull City manager Marco Silva has been linked to the managerial job at West Ham by the Daily Telegraph.
Football reporter Matt Law says that the Hammers will be among four clubs trying to lure the Portuguese coach away from the Kcom stadium in the summer, along with Porto, Southampton and Watford.
Silva has had an excellent few months in charge of the Tigers, and has managed to guide them out of the relegation places, two points ahead of 18th place Swansea with three games to go.
The Telegraph say that the 39 year old is a candidate to replace Slaven Bilic if West Ham decide to sack the Croatian at the end of the season after the club’s annual post season review process.
The Guardian have reported that Bilic may only have two home matches against Tottenham and Liverpool to save his job, while the Daily Star are reporting that although this report is wide of the mark, the Hammers have drawn up a shortlist of three possible replacements including Newcastle manager Rafa Benitez, Fulham’s Slavisa Jokanovic and former Manchester City coach Roberto Mancini.
