Pellegrini is close to an agreement on a contract with the east London club ADAM DAVY/PAManuel Pellegrini, the former Manchester City manager, is confident that he will be named as David Moyes’s successor at West Ham United. The Chilean is close to agreeing a three-year contract with the east London club. He will hold talks with David Sullivan, the West Ham joint chairman, on Sunday to finalise the deal. He earns about £10 million a year, and his contract, which includes a £5.1 million exit clause, expires at the end of the season. It is unclear whether West Ham will pay compensation — or how much.
