West Ham United will not drag out a decision over manager Gianfranco Zola's position after the end of the season this weekend.

Indeed, the Mirror says joint Hammers chairmen David Sullivan and David Gold have scheduled a meeting with Zola for Monday.

Sources close to the West Ham owners insist no final decision has yet been made on Zola. But the Italian, in charge since September 2008, is expected to either resign from the Upton Park hot-seat or be sacked.

Sullivan and Gold already have a short-list of replacements including Portsmouth boss Avram Grant, Croatia coach Slaven Bilic and Ajax's Martin Jol.
