Jose Mourinho is “very interested” in the prospect of taking over from Julen Lopetegui at West Ham, sources with knowledge of his situation have told Football Insider.
This comes amid growing pressure on the manager’s position following a slow start to the season, with just three wins from 11 Premier League games.
The former Chelsea, Tottenham and Man United boss has made no secret of his desire to return to England and has been putting his name in the media to drum up.
Sources say Mourinho would “jump at the chance” to return to London with the Hammers, and still has a house in the capital with a return to England now on the cards.
Jose Mourinho to ‘jump at’ West Ham managers job in new twist
Mourinho has been outspoken about the possibility of a return to England after initially claiming: “The best thing I have to do is when I leave Fener is that I go to a club that doesn’t play in UEFA competition. So a club at the bottom in England who needs a coach in two years, I’m ready to go.“
