West Ham assistant manager Paco Jémez short term contract with the club is set to expire in 74 days, and it is not known whether it will be extended or not.
Paco has been largely credited with the West Ham turnaround since he joined in mid-January on a six-month deal, which has given the club a good chance of survival.
Whether Paco stays or leaves is partially related to which division we are in next season, but also whether Nuno Espírito Santo remains in charge of West Ham next season.
When [Claret and Hugh](https://www.claretandhugh.info/category/news/) asked a senior club source about Paco’s contract situation this morning, we were exclusively told, _“It’s the manager’s call whether to extend Paco’s contract”_
In one alternative scenario, we could see Pacos Jemez offered the full-time West Ham manager’s role if the Hammers are relegated and Nuno walks away, but that is purely speculation on our part.
