I reckon West Ham is his most likely destination.
Any particular reason?
None whatsoever. Just speculation.
I recall English tabloids linking him to West Ham back in March, and I have come across many random tweets like this one saying he is favourite to land the job if Moyes is sacked:
That said, back in early March a source allegedly close to Pellegrini told a chilean tabloid that:
[size=small][font=Georgia,]"Lo de Arsenal es una posibilidad cierta. Manuel (Pellegrini) es un nombre de mucho respeto en la Liga Premier de Inglaterra desde que dirigió y fue campeón con Manchester City. El equipo de Londres está al tanto de sus opciones"[/font][/size]

At the time it was claimed that West Ham and Everton had been in touch with Pellegrini but was not interested, whereas he would be keen on Arsenal or Bayern.
The same article made the claim that Wenger would leave this season, but also suggested he would be offered to 'move up' - which seems to be different from what has happened.
My intuition is that chilean media would be drumming this up more if he was ultimately heading to one of the bigger clubs, but it's just a gut feeling.
