West Ham United have parted ways with manager Graham Potter just five games into the Premier League campaign, following a disappointing run of results.
The decision comes after a dismal start to the season, which saw the Hammers struggle for form and consistency. Under Potter, West Ham lost 52% of their Premier League matches, the highest loss rate of any permanent manager in the club’s top-flight history.
Potter, who was brought in to steady the team and push them into the top half of the table, failed to deliver the spark fans had hoped for. The club has not yet announced who will take charge on an interim basis, but a swift appointment is expected as West Ham look to turn their season around.
