Analytical leader resigns from position at West Ham as changes continue
  • West Ham changes are continuing behind the scenes
  • Maximilian Hahn has resigned from his role with the club
  • The Hammers are expected to appoint a Technical Director soon

West Ham United are preparing for life in the Championship this summer and making changes on the pitch as well as off it.

The Hammers have to raise £150 million this summer, with player sales expected to be the main way of raising the needed funds. Manager Nuno Espirito Santo will stay at the the club, but the likes of Crysencio Summerville and Mateus Fernandes will leave, with more said to be on their way out of West Ham.

At the top, change is also expected. Part-owner Daniel Kretinsky is expected to increase his stake in the club, gaining more influence over the boardroom. In turn, this is expected to continue the force of pushing David Sullivan out of the club, with his ally, Karren Brady, no longer with the Hammers.

Maximilian Hahn resigns from West Ham role

According to West Ham Way and ExWHUEmployee, West Ham’s Head of Technical Recruitment and Analysis has resigned from his role with the club.

The German is highly rated in his field, but now leaves the Irons, with the club expected to promote from within.

About the resignation, EXWHUEmployee stated:

“West Ham’s Maximilian Hahn has resigned from his position as head coach, deciding he will be leaving the club,

“The German is highly rated in his field and is said to have a number of options on the table for him to progress his career. Hahn joined the club in 2024 and stayed through multiple managerial changes due to the good impression that he had made.

“It is expected for now that boyhood West Ham fan, Dylan Curnell, who has worked his way up through the academy analysis team and has been a part of the club for the last seven seasons, will take on more of the role vacated.

“The club are also expected to announce a new technical director to oversee the role in the coming week or so.”
