Outgoing Paris Saint-Germain manager Unai Emery is reportedly due to undergo talks with West Ham United regarding the possibility of replacing David Moyes.

Outgoing Paris Saint-Germain manager Unai Emery will reportedly hold talks with West Ham United regarding the prospect of becoming their next manager.

Current Hammers boss David Moyes was only handed a contract until the end of the season and is expected to leave the club this summer despite steering them to safety in the Premier League.

Emery, meanwhile, will leave PSG after the Ligue 1 season has finished, being replaced in the French capital by former Borussia Dortmund boss Thomas Tuchel despite winning the domestic treble this term.

Football.London reports that the Spaniard could be handed the chance of an immediate return to work, though, with West Ham set to meet with him before this weekend.

The Hammers have already held discussions with Shakhtar Donetsk boss Paulo Fonseca and are understood to be considering approaches for Manuel Pellegrini and Rafael Benitez too.

Emery has enjoyed huge success over the past five-and-a-half years in management, winning three successive Europa League titles with Sevilla before guiding PSG to seven trophies in just two seasons.
