Former Real Betis boss Pepe Mel is reportedly keen on managing in the Premier League.
The 50-year-old is currently unattached after losing his Betis position on Sunday evening after a poor start to the season left the Spanish outfit bottom of the La Liga table.
However, according to reports in Spain, Mel has been studying English over the past few months, with a view to taking charge of a club at the top level of English football.
The West Ham United post has been mooted with current boss Sam Allardyce coming under increasing pressure following their 1-0 defeat to Crystal Palace on Tuesday evening.
