Speculation continues linking Mark
Hughes with Gianfranco
Zola's West Ham
United job.
The Mirror says Zola is fighting for his future at
Upton Park after a very public fall-out with the club’s new owners
David Gold and David Sullivan.
And despite Gold and Sullivan insisting they always backed their
managers with time and support, West
Ham have been eyeing up former Manchester City boss Mark
Hughes.
Hughes is their first choice if Zola is ousted with the club
battling against relegation and the pressure now on the
West Ham manager.
The club’s new owners are known to be big admirers and Zola is
aware of their liking for Hughes which will only add to the
uncertainty around his future.
Hughes is currently out of work after being axed by City and
would relish another Premier
League job, having also been linked with the Turkish
national post.
