West Ham United are considering Michael Carrick as a possible managerial candidate should results deteriorate under Scott Parker.
West Ham's hierarchy are reportedly continuing to monitor the situation and consider alternatives in case results take a turn for the worse.
Carrick has attracted West Ham's attention amid the possibility of problems with results under new head coach Parker.
Parker has been given the opportunity to lead West Ham, but his position could become more difficult if the team fail to meet the hierarchy's expectations.
In that case, West Ham could resume their search for another manager, with Carrick among the candidates under consideration.
No specific timeframe or conditions for a possible appointment have been reported. The situation will depend on West Ham's results in their upcoming matches.
