Ruben Amorim is unlikely to join West Ham following talks with the club, talkSPORT understands.

The Sporting Lisbon boss flew to the UK on Monday to meet West Ham officials.

Amorim was pictured flying out of Portugal on Monday following a training session with Sporting, and was accompanied by businessman Raul Costa.

Sporting players have been given Tuesday and Wednesday off, ahead of a huge clash with rivals Porto this Sunday.

With the downtime, Amorim took the opportunity to travel to London for talks with West Ham chiefs.

However, it is now believed that it is unlikely he will be joining the Hammers.
