His first Premier League match with West Ham will be a London derby on January 14 at home to Fulham. He will be joined at the Hammers by Bruno (Assistant Coach), Billy Reid (First-Team Coach) and Narcis Pelach (First-Team Coach).

The 49-year-old former Brighton & Hove Albion and Chelsea head coach returned to the Premier League after a 21-month absence, after leaving his last role at Chelsea in April 2023.
