Slaven Bilic is set to hold talks with West Ham over replacing Sam Allardyce as manager, according to Daily Star.

The Croatian coach has been linked with a return to England after several years playing for West Ham United during his playing days.

Bilic is free to leave current club Besiktas this summer, although he has been offered an extension and an improvement on terms by the Istanbul club.

And, West Ham have indicated that he could be one of a few, short-listed as a replacement for Sam Allardyce.

Bilic has spoken of his desire to manage in England before, saying:

“Managing in the Premier League is a question I get asked, not only about England – but mostly – and whatever you say, it sounds not fair to someone. I really like it here atBesiktas, I like this job, it’s a massive club.”
