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.
