BILIC WOULD LOVE A WEST HAM RETURN
c/p The Mirror - UK
SLAVEN BILIC would jump at the chance of a dramatic return to West Ham as the pressure mounts on under-fire boss Alan Curbishley.
Curbishley is believed to be three games from the sack after his disastrous three-month spell in charge has left West Ham stuck in the relegation zone - and the former Hammers defender is on his hit-list of potential successors.
And Mirror Sport can reveal Bilic, who masterminded Croatia's Euro 2008 qualifying win over England last year, is keen and watching developments with great interest.
Bilic was on Eggert Magnusson's list of candidates when he hired Curbishley - and the Icelandic owner is considering a change before it is too late.

that is a LIE Mirro just made that up Bilić said that he wouldnt leave roatia if Real Madrid wanted him. I am a spoorts writer from Croatia and belive me there is as much chance of Bilic going to Hammers as there is of him becoming a miss world contestant

Andrija - I'm inclined to agree. I would love Bilic at West Ham in the long term and maybe one day it will happen but I expect him to stay with his country for the forseeable future.
He loves his country and would not abandon them whilst qualifying for a major tournament. Mind you he has shown before that money talks when he left for Everton which he later regreted.
