WEST HAM are reportedly interested in replacing David Moyes with Reims boss Will Still.

Moyes’ second stint in charge of the Hammers is on a knife edge as the club is currently in the bottom three, sitting in 18th place.

It’s been suggested the Londoners are contemplating relieving the Scot of his duties if results don’t improve.

And it’s been claimed they’re interested in appointing Still – who has taken the footie world by storm – as his successor.

That’s according to Foot Mercato, who claim the Hammers brass are “clearly under a spell” cast by Still – despite him not having a pro license.

And he could very well be tempted to take charge of the Irons as he’s a lifelong fan of the club.

Although he recently insisted he wouldn’t entertain any approaches from his boyhood team out of respect for Moyes.

During an appearance on talkSPORT, he said: “No, just out of respect for David Moyes, he’s still there and doing the job.”

But he admitted it would be a different situation if Moyes were to depart the London Stadium for a second time.

When the very real scenario was put to him, he said: “I’d have a think about it.”

Still has put himself in the global shop window with a stellar season in charge of Ligue 1 side Reims.

The Red and Whites are currently ninth in the table but suffered a 2-1 loss to giants Marseille on Sunday thanks to a brace from former Arsenal hitman Alexis Sanchez.

After the match, Still said: “We managed to cause issues to a very good Marseille side in a very intense game.

“I can only be proud of that.”

Still’s troops will be back in action a fortnight on Sunday, travelling to the west of France to take on Nantes.

West Ham, meanwhile, will welcome fellow Prem strugglers Southampton to the London Stadium.
