Former
Manchester City boss, Manuel Pellegrint has been appointed the new manager for West
Ham United on a three-year deal, the Premier League club announced on Tuesday.
Chilean
Pellegrini left Chinese Super League club Hebei China Fortune on Saturday and
replaces David Moyes, who guided the club to a 13th-placed finish in the league
this past season.
“I am
delighted to welcome Manuel Pellegrini to West Ham United.
“He
is one of the world’s most respected football coaches and we look forward to
working with him,” West Ham joint-chairman David Sullivan said.
“It
was important that we appointed someone with knowledge and experience of the
Premier League.
“Someone who already has an understanding – not only of the teams and players we face – but of West Ham United and our ambitions,” Sullivan explained.
Former
Villarreal, Real Madrid and Malaga boss Pellegrini returns to England two years
after leaving Manchester City, a team the 64-year-old led to the Premier League
title in 2013-14.
