Sporting CP head coach Ruben Amorim is remaining tight-lipped about his future following his short trip to London amid speculation he could take the reins at West Ham.

Amorim had travelled with his agent Raul Costa on a private jet to London after Monday’s training session to reportedly discuss a potential move to West Ham.

The aim of the trip, according to Portuguese newspaper A Bola, was for Amorim and his agent to evaluate an official offer that he had received from West Ham earlier this month.

Sources have told ESPN that Amorim is one of the main candidates the east London club is considering to replace David Moyes.

A Bola add that West Ham’s offer is more lucrative than Liverpool‘s.
