West Ham eye Hoffenheim boss Nagelsmann as Bilic replacement

Published on: 24 October 2017

Hoffenheim manager Julian Nagelsmann has been touted by West Ham United as a potential replacement for Slaven Bilic, according to the Daily Star.

Reports on Monday claimed that Bilic was told that he has two games to turn things around by the West Ham board.

The 30-year-old is one of the most popular prospects in football after taking Hoffenheim to a surprising fourth placed finish last season.

He was recently linked with the Bayern Munich job, and although Jump Heynckes was appointed, it is understood the Bavarian giants still view Nagelsmann as a more suitable manager to lead them long-term.

Ex-Manchester City managers Manuel Pellegrini (Hebei China Fortune) and Roberto Mancini (Zenit St. Petersburg) have both been mentioned as potential replacements for Bilic.
