Wolves are poised to advance talks with Julen Lopetegui regarding their managerial vacancy after his sacking by Sevilla, with the former Spain and Real Madrid coach in line to be Bruno Lage’s successor. The Wolves hierarchy have revived their longstanding interest in Lopetegui and are hopeful of appointing the 56-year-old.
Lopetegui was dismissed immediately after Sevilla’s 4-1 home defeat by Borussia Dortmund on Wednesday and said his goodbyes to supporters on the pitch. Wolves plan to ramp up discussions in the coming days and, significantly, they will not have to pay compensation.
