West Ham sacked head coach Graham Potter on Saturday after only nine months in charge, with the club sitting 19th in the Premier League.
"Results and performances over the course of the second half of last season and the start of the 2025/26 season have not matched expectations, and the board of directors believe that a change is necessary in order to help improve the team's position in the Premier League as soon as possible," the club said in a statement.
Potter, 50, took over at the London Stadium in January with the club in 14th position, where they finished the campaign.
The club have picked up just three points from their opening five Premier League games and are due to face Everton on Monday.

"The process of appointing a replacement is underway. The club will be making no further comment at this time," the statement added.
