Nuno Espirito Santo could make his return to the Premier League much quicker than anticipated after the latest update.
Multiple managers in England’s top flight are facing pressure from their hierarchy, though this cannot be said at Molineux Stadium after Wolves decided to hand Vitor Pereira a new deal.
The Old Gold are rock-bottom of the Premier League table without a single point, but it is not them who have sounded out the former Nottingham Forest man to be their next manager.
Espirito Santo had a falling out with Edu, Forest’s Global Head of Football, before Evangelos Marinakis took action after the manager called out the club’s lack of transfer activity over the summer.
Football Insider understands that Man United will give Ruben Amorim more time despite a horrid start to the 2025-26 campaign, and instead, Espirito Santo could be heading to London.

According to talkSPORT (19 September), he is the latest candidate to emerge on West Ham’s radar as Graham Potter faces crushing pressure from the fanbase at the London Stadium.
It is understood that the Hammers have already spoken with the 51-year-old, with their current manager facing a crunch test against Crystal Palace on Saturday, 19 September.
