Lopetegui and Wolves parts ways days before PL season kick-off
Julen Lopetegui has left Wolves just few days before the start of the new Premier League season.
The Spaniard had been in charge of the club for nine months and kept them in the Premier League after taking over with the team bottom last Christmas.
Lopetegui had criticised the club’s lack of spending during this summer’s window and cut a frustrated figure over the last few weeks.
Meanwhile, Wolves have also seen a number of the club’s best players leave during this summer.
“The head coach and club acknowledged and accepted their differences of opinion on certain issues and agreed that an amicable end to his contract was the best solution for all parties,” read a statement of the club announcing Lopetegui’s departure from Wolves.
Wolves will start their 2023/24 Premier League campaign away at Manchester United on Monday August 14 before hosting Brighton at Molineux on August 19 then two away games against Everton (August 26) and Crystal Palace (September 2).
