Its a done deal: Julen Lopetegui deal with West Ham is terminated by the owner of the team due to…
Football transfer expert Fabrizio Romano has shared the latest developments regarding West Ham’s pursuit of Julen Lopetegui, indicating that a verbal agreement was reached over the weekend. Following another disappointing defeat for David Moyes’ team, this time against Chelsea, any remaining hopes of extending Moyes’ tenure at the London Stadium have faded away. The urgent need for fresh talent before the next Premier League season has become evident, especially with West Ham conceding a record-breaking 70 goals under Moyes’ management and facing the prospect of missing out on European football.
Initially considering Ruben Amorim, West Ham engaged in discussions with the Sporting manager, only for him to affirm his commitment to his current club after winning the Portuguese title. Amorim stated that he intends to stay at Sporting and pursue further success with the team.
Fabrizio Romano has now disclosed that Julen Lopetegui, formerly of Wolves and Real Madrid, has reached an agreement in principle with West Ham to become their manager starting this summer. Despite initial uncertainties during negotiations, AC Milan’s withdrawal from pursuing Lopetegui has cleared the path for West Ham to secure their desired candidate.
