West Ham United has decided to end Julen Lopetegui's tenure as the team's coach. After weeks of speculations about his continuity, the London club has opted to dismiss the Basque coach due to the disappointing results obtained at the beginning of the season.

Lopetegui's arrival at West Ham generated high expectations following his remarkable time at Sevilla, where he won the Europa League in 2020. However, the coach failed to replicate that success with the English team. Under his guidance, West Ham has shown an inconsistent performance in the Premier League, placing in the lower standings, causing concern both in the board and among the fans.

West Ham has its replacement ready

Rumors about his potential departure started gaining traction weeks ago, but the decision was finalized after a new home defeat left the team in a sporting crisis. Now, the club already has in mind a possible replacement: Graham Potter, former Chelsea coach, who is well-regarded in England for his playing style and ability to build competitive teams.

West Ham United can confirm that Head Coach Julen Lopetegui has today left the Club.
