Manuel Pellegrini has reportedly decided to travel to London in an attempt to conclude negotiations to become the next manager of West Ham United.

Pellegrini is currently with Chinese Super League side Hebei China Fortune, but it appears increasingly likely that the 64-year-old will replace David Moyes at the London Stadium.

Earlier this week, a report suggested that the Chilean had already agreed terms with the Premier League team and according to Sky Sports News, plans are in place for talks to continue on Monday.

Newcastle United manager Rafael Benitez is also regarded as a potential target for West Ham but at this stage, discussions seem to be at an advanced stage with Pellegrini.

Between 2013 and 2016, Pellegrini was boss at Manchester City, with a Premier League title and two EFL Cups being won during his stint at the Etihad Stadium.
