West Ham United's English head coach Graham Potter looks on the touchline withe the score at 0-3 in the second half during the English Premier League football match between West Ham United and Tottenham Hotspur at the London Stadium, in London. AFP
The team is in next-to-last place after losing four of its league games so far and is already out of the English League Cup.
Potter took charge in January and led the London club to a 14th-placed finish last season.
“Results and performances over the course of the second half of last season and the start of the 2025-26 season have not matched expectations,” West Ham said, “and the board of directors believe that a change is necessary in order to help improve the team’s position in the Premier League as soon as possible.”
West Ham added that the “process of appointing a replacement is underway.”
Potter’s backroom staff also have left.
