GiveMeSport reports that Marco Silva may become a contender to succeed David Moyes at West Ham, who is under increasing pressure.

In case the Scotsman leaves at the end of the season, the Hammers may choose to employ a manager from within the Premier League, according to sources cited by the news outlet on its website.

It is stated that the Irons would explore the option to appoint Thomas Tuchel, who is scheduled to depart Bayern Munich this summer, and that technical director Tim Steidten also has admiration for Paulo Fonseca, the manager of Lille, and Arne Slot, the manager of Feyenoord.

Even if West Ham defeated Brentford and Everton back-to-back this past week, the rumours over Moyes’ future still linger.

In the event that no decision is taken prior to the Scotsman’s contract expiring, it is probable that the rumours will persist until the end of the season.

The preferred choice, if the Hammers decide to fire Moyes, will undoubtedly be someone with managerial experience in Europe who has the ability to lead the team to greater heights.

That person is more likely to be someone like Tuchel, however it’s unclear at this point if he would be open to moving to the London Stadium.

The Hammers need to sort out the manager issue as soon as possible because whoever is in charge of the club, will have to plan the summer transfer window according to his plans.
