This prior experience could help him integrate quickly and understand the specific challenges and opportunities the Hammers present.
As a head coach, Terzic has demonstrated his ability to revitalise struggling teams and achieve success and could be the ideal one to take over from David Moyes.

In his first full season in charge, he guided Dortmund to the semi-finals of the UEFA Champions League, showcasing his tactical acumen and ability to manage high-pressure situations.
Terzic’s man-management skills and his knack for developing young players are particularly valuable attributes.
He has been able to get the best out of players like Jadon Sancho, which suggests he could help nurture and improve West Ham’s young talents.
His success in rebuilding Dortmund’s squad after losing key players like Erling Haaland and Jude Bellingham also highlights his capability to adapt and build a competitive team under challenging circumstances.
