With West Ham confirming Nuno Espírito Santo’s stay at the club within a few days of relegation being confirmed, the Hammers now turn their attention to the staff as well as the players.

Assistant Head Coach Paco Jemez has released a statement which indicates his time at West Ham is over after his contract has run out. Whilst disappointing, West Ham was his first-ever gig as an assistant, and he wants to explore an avenue elsewhere, somewhere he’ll be the top dog.

West Ham United have put out a message from the Board of Directors this morning, discussing all of the troubles that have occurred, profusely apologising, but most importantly, confirming that Nuno will be staying.

“We held meetings with Head Coach Nuno Espírito Santo early this week and are pleased to confirm that he has expressed his continued commitment to the Club – as we have to him.”

Nuno Espírito Santo is expected to remain at West Ham United after further talks have taken place.

Numerous sources yesterday suggested that Nuno was set to face the sack after a meeting with the club, but yesterday evening, it turned out to be inconclusive.

Daniel Kretinsky, who is rumoured to have levelled his stake with David Sullivan in the club, has been an advocate for Nuno to remain in his position. Meanwhile, David Sullivan wants to trigger the ‘free release clause’ West Ham placed in the Portuguese manager's contract and sign a manager on a free.
