West Ham United: Nuno Espirito Santo to stay as manager for Championship campaign
West Ham said Nuno Espirito Santo will stay after relegation, citing improved results and his 99-point Championship title with Wolverhampton Wanderers.
- West Ham United confirmed on Wednesday that manager Nuno Espirito Santo will remain to lead their Championship campaign despite relegation from the Premier League, following Monday meetings with club senior management.
- After 14 years in the top flight, West Ham's Premier League tenure ended on the final day when Tottenham's victory over Everton secured survival; three defeats in their final four matches proved fatal despite a 3-0 win over Leeds United.
- Nuno previously won the EFL Championship with 99 points at Wolverhampton Wanderers in 2018, and the board cited West Ham's 1.47 points per game over their final 17 matches—a ratio yielding seventh-place across a full season—as evidence of improvement.
- The board emphasized Nuno is the right leader for promotion, citing improved squad mentality since January, while captain Jarrod Bowen posted: "It's hard to post something like this when all you're feeling is embarrassment and pain."
- West Ham's path to promotion will test whether they can sustain the form that saw them take 22 points from 13 matches between January and April, avoiding the late-season inconsistency that cost them survival.
