West Ham United are very much enjoying their new life under Nuno Espirito Santo. There’s even optimism breaking out around the Hammers, and hope they can have a few good months ahead.

For Nuno, it will be especially pleasing given his Nottingham Forest troubles. That said, the manager is far too nice a guy to be looking at Ange Postecoglou’s mess and sniggering.

West Ham have been in a continual period of change on and off the pitch for years, and another exit looks close.

VfL Bochum have appointed Uwe Rösler as their new manager. They’re currently second to last in Bundesliga 2, so things haven’t been going to plan.

Bild report that following Uwe Rösler’s appointment, they now want to improve their recruitment staff, and that’s where a West Ham employee gets a mention.

West Ham United’s Maximilian Hahn is on the list for a position in ‘sporting management’ at the club.

He’s just 29-years-of-age, but could get a senior role with Bochum. The role, but obviously not the club level, would be a step up from his current Hammers position of Head of Technical Recruitment and Analysis.
