The Hammers have made Graham Potter a job offer but another role has emerged
Graham Potter has confirmed his next new job amid interest from West Ham over making him their new manager.
Potter has been out of work since being sacked by Chelsea in April 2023 just seven months into a five-year contract.
The former Swansea City manager has been linked to a host of managerial vacancies since his Stamford Bridge exit, including the England job after Gareth Southgate's exit, and is against a target for the Hammers.
Standard Sport understands that Potter is considering an offer from West Ham to replace current incumbent Julen Lopetegu, who is expected to be sacked despite taking charge of first-team training on Tuesday morning.

At the same time, Potter has announced another new job with PFA Business School confirming his role as course co-director for the certificate in Football Psychology, Emotional Intelligence and Leadership.
The course is designed to help students "develop their leadership skills in football and to encourage their players and team to achieve better results."
"It's very exciting that the PFA are doing this and providing the opportunity for young players, for players, for old players to improve and get qualifications and tackle what comes at them at the next part of their lives.
"I'm happy to support this ... It's an investment not just in the now but in the future."
