SLAVEN BILIC
The bookies' favourite has just parted company with Turkish side Besiktas and has been linked with the Hammers before. The 46-year-old former head coach of the Croatian national team spent a season as a player at Upton Park in 1996-97.
DAVID MOYES
He would seem a perfect fit for West Ham after his achievements with Everton - notwithstanding his failure at Manchester United. The big question is whether he would leave Real Sociedad after little more than six months with the Spanish club.
UNAI EMERY
The Sevilla head coach is one of the hottest properties in management and the 43-year-old is viewed as being in the mould of Jose Mourinho. He has also been linked with a move to Real Madrid if Carlo Ancelotti is replaced - so West Ham may be too small fry.
STEVE MCCLAREN

PAOLO DI CANIO
A year ago Hammers fans were chanting for the former Upton Park idol to take over from Allardyce but the Italian would be a long shot after his high-octane spell at Sunderland ended with the sack.
