Premier League side, Wolverhampton Wanderers have announced former Real Madrid, Spain and Sevilla boss, Julen Lopetegui as their new head coach.
The club have been searching for a new manager since sacking Portugese manager Bruno Lage on October 2. Lage was able to lead the team to wins in only one of his final fifteen games in charge.
Lopetegui will take charge on November 14, subject to being granted work permits, with interim manager Steve Davis remaining in charge for Saturday’s home match against Brighton.
Wolves chairman Jeff Shi said, “Julen is a top coach, with excellent experience at an elite level of the game, and we are very pleased to have agreed a deal to bring him to Wolves.
“Since the very beginning, Julen has been our number one choice to manage Wolves, and we look forward to welcoming him and his team when they join us in the coming weeks.”
Wolves remain in the bottom three after winning only one game since Lage left, against Nottingham Forest, with their only other point under Davis coming in last week’s 1-1 draw at Brentford.
