West Ham United have confirmed the appointment of Kevin Nolan and Paul Nevin as new first team coaches.

Former Hammers captain Nolan and Nevin - previously a coach with England under Gareth Southgate - have joined David Moyes' staff initially until the end of the season, and began work this morning alongside fellow coaches Alan Irvine and Xavi Valero at Rush Green.

Moyes told whufc.com: “We welcome Kevin and Paul to the Club and look forward to working with them. Both have a wealth of experience in the game and I'm sure they will make a very positive contribution between now and the end of the season.

“Kevin obviously knows the Club very well having played here previously, while Paul's coaching pedigree is excellent. It has taken some time to finalise the coaching staff, but I wanted to make sure I brought in the right people to help us, and both Kevin and Paul are fantastic additions. They will get working right away and we are all completely focused on the job we need to do in the coming weeks and months."
