New West Ham boss Julen Lopetegui says there are "no limits" to his ambition for the club.

Lopetegui knew when he left Wolverhampton Wanderers on the eve of last season he wanted to stay in the Premier League.

It is why he remained in England for an extended period even as successor Gary O'Neil was making his mark at Molineux.

He underlined his determination to succeed in his unveiling news conference at London Stadium on Monday.

And he stressed he will not set targets for his new club - because he does not want to restrict them.

"There are no limits," he said. "We believe in ourselves.

"I always said [after leaving Wolves] my first thought was to remain in the Premier League.

"I have a lot of reasons to be here. I am in a big club - a London club with a big potential.

"We have a very good platform to be able to do one step and to make a big noise."
