Unai Emery appears to have turned West Ham down: Action Images
West Ham United have reportedly failed to persuade Sevilla boss Unai Emery to become their next manager.
The Hammers have held talks with Emery about replacing Sam Allardyce but these are thought to have stalled and the Spaniard is likely to remain with Sevilla after guiding them into the Champions League.
West Ham have already missed out on David Moyes, Rafa Benitez and Carlo Ancelotti so the Hammers may well opt for former player Slaven Bilic.
