West Ham United boss Sam Allardyce has admitted he would love to take charge of Manchester United.

The Hammers manager, whose contract expires this summer, has dreamt of working at Old Trafford since his time at Bolton. 

Allardyce told the Clare Balding Show on BT Sport: "If I don't say West Ham is a dream club to have managed then I would be in trouble with the West Ham fans, it has been a dream club to manage.

"But for me there has always been one and that was Man United. When I was trying to get promotion at Bolton to the First Division I used to always go and watch Manchester United play at Old Trafford.

'Then playing at Old Trafford myself and going there as a manager I think in this country was the one.'
