JUlen Lopetegui stops being Wolverhampton coach… six days after the ‘Wolves’ debut in the 2023-24 Premier League against Manchester United.
The departure of the former coach of Real Madrid and Seville, among others, was, to tell the truth, an open secret. Above all, after the Spaniard publicly showed his disagreement with the (null) transfer policy of the club. “We need to sign to be competitive,” he said.
“The manager and the club recognized and accepted their differences of opinion on certain issues and agreed that ending his contract amicably was the best solution for all parties.”reads the official statement of the club.
The club itself acknowledges that they had been working on this solution for some time: “Conversations have been ongoing in recent weeks, which gave the club time to start working on the search for a successor while Julen guaranteed that the team would arrive in the best possible condition for the start of the Premier League season.”
