On the morning of West Ham’s London derby against Arsenal the BBC are reporting that discussions have been held with the Northern Irishman.
“O’Neill and West Ham have been in talks over the last week and it seems he will be the new manager," said BBC sports news correspondent Dan Roan.
"There was a board meeting on Wednesday after which club owners David Sullivan and David Gold refused to publicly back their man and it seems a decision has been taken and this will be Grant’s last match in charge.”
