Former Roma coach Rudi Garcia is one of the frontrunners to replace under fire West Ham United coach Rudi Garcia. According to reports in The Express, the Frenchman is on a shortlist along with ex Manchester City and Inter boss Roberto Mancini.
 

Garcia has been out of work since he was sacked by the club from the Italian capital in January, he has also been linked French giants Marseille, who are about to go under new ownership and have made no secret of the fact that they would like to see the 52-year-old.
 

After a poor start to the new campaign, Bilic is coming under increasing pressure from fans despite leading the club to a Europa League place last term. The failure to make the group stages of the competition in the summer looks to have been one of the factors in their dramatic loss of form and only a wonderful solo effort from Dimitri Payet rescued a point at home to Middlesbrough on Saturday.
