Report: West Ham United want to replace Sam Allardyce with Marcelo Bielsa

By , Staff Reporter
West Ham United are reportedly considering replacing manager Sam Allardyce with Marseille boss Marcelo Bielsa at the end of the season.

West Ham United are reportedly considering a move for Marseille coach Marcelo Bielsa as they intend to part ways with current manager Sam Allardyce in the summer.

The Premier League club are due to hold talks with Allardyce when the season comes to a close, but widespread reports have suggested that the 60-year-old will be shown the door.

According to Goal.com, the Hammers hierarchy have put Bielsa at the top of their managerial wishlist as they reportedly believe that he would be the right man to lead the team to their switch to the Olympic Stadium in 2016.

Bielsa, whose Marseille side currently sit third in Ligue 1, will come to the end of his current contract in 2016.
