Graham Potter said his appointment as West Ham head coach made him feel like it was “Christmas for the adults” after he signed a two-and-a half-year deal at the London Stadium.

The 49-year-old has not worked since being sacked by Chelsea in April 2023 and replaces Julen Lopetegui who was dismissed on Wednesday after six months in the job.
