Scott Parker has expressed strong optimism about achieving promotion following his appointment at West Ham. The former England midfielder, who previously managed Fulham, Bournemouth and Club Brugge, stated he is "very confident" the club will secure a return to the top flight.

Parker's appointment comes as West Ham seek to rebuild after a challenging period. The 44-year-old manager brings experience of winning promotion from the Championship with both Fulham and Bournemouth, achievements that likely factored into the club's decision.

Speaking after his unveiling, Parker emphasized his belief in the squad and the project, though specific details regarding transfer plans or tactical approach were not disclosed. The club hierarchy will be hoping his track record of success in the second tier translates to immediate results.
