Sullivan adamant next West Ham manager will be British

West Ham United co-owner David Sullivan admits they want a British managerial appointment.

Avram Grant was shown the door on Sunday after the Hammers were officially relegated.

"We will wait to see who applies and wait to see what happens generally, but it will be resolved within two weeks, I should think," Sullivan said.

"I think we will definitely get an English manager, or a British manager.

"We do need someone who understands the culture and if you get someone with a knowledge of the East End that's so much better."
