West Ham said in an official statement: “West Ham United confirms the departure of coach Graham Potter from the club,” and added: “The results and performance did not correspond to the second half of last season and the beginning of the 2025/26 season with aspirations, and the club’s management believes that the change has become necessary to improve the team’s position in the Premier League as soon as possible.”

The English club’s statement continued: “The club also confirms the departure of both the assistant coach Bruno Saltor, the first team coach, Billy Reed and Narcis Pilac, the main goalkeeper coach, Kasper Engersin, and the coach of the guards, Linus Candoline immediately.
