West Ham defeated Wolves 2-1 in “El Sackico” on Monday night, and Julien Lopetegui was still in control of the team.
Gary O’Neil, 41, is still in command at Molineux, despite the fact that many people anticipated him to be fired.
Despite Monday’s victory, it is thought that West Ham is planning to replace Lopetegui, and one possibility being mentioned is Matthias Jaissle.
The Hammers appear to be vying for the London Stadium hot seat with a much more renowned manager, though.
He is also reportedly targeted by wolves.
But sadly for the Black Country group, it appears that his preference is pretty obvious.
Wolves approach manager but his reply will excite West Ham fans
It’s obvious that Lopetegui and O’Neil are currently living on borrowed time at Molineux and the London Stadium, respectively.
But when it comes to the two teams vying for the same coach, it appears to be in West Ham’s favour.
Wolves have reportedly approached renowned Italian manager Max Allegri, according to a report from The Athletic.
But because he wanted the West Ham job, the 57-year-old rejected them.
In my opinion, that is fantastic news for us.
The Hammers are the front-runners to sign Allegri, according to a report earlier this week.
This underperforming collection of players will surely get back on track under the guidance of the Italian, who is a true proven winner.
Max Allegri a big upgrade on Julen Lopetegui for West Ham
The Italian’s methods represent a huge jump up in quality on Lopetegui’s.
We desperately need defensive organisation, and Allegri is excellent at that at the London Stadium.
If we are ever to succeed, the Hammers’ defence, which has been so leaky for the past 12 months, must alter.
The former manager of AC Milan and Juventus, who has guided his sides to six league titles since 2011, is a fierce competitor.
His players must always give it their all; he will never accept anything less.
Since the Italian is currently unemployed, David Sullivan will surely be interested in him given his availability on a free transfer.
I wouldn’t be surprised in the least if Max Allegri were to take Julen Lopetegui’s place at West Ham after he declined the position at Wolves.
