Wolves might be about to appoint a former Real Madrid and Spain coach. How times have changed in the Premier League. twoht
In the end, it was a little difficult to see why they didn’t pull the trigger a little earlier. September was a quiet month for Wolves, with just two Premier League matches which ended with a win against Southampton and an obviously expected home defeat against Manchester City. But their return to the Premier League schedule,The West Ham defeat left them third from bottom in the Premier League with just one win from their first eight games.
And while last season was a little underwhelming, Lage can hardly claim that he wasn’t backed in the transfer market during the summer, with Matheus Nunes arriving from Sporting Clube for £42m, Nathan Collins from Burnley for £20m and Sasa Kalajdzic for £15m. So while other managerial changes this season may have raised an eyebrow or two, the departure of Lage from Molineux feels somewhat more like the inevitable closure of an admittedly brief chapter. Lage had replaced Nuno Espirito Santo, whose football had occasionally looked a little reductive but who had got them back into the Premier League in the first place and kept them well clear of turbulence.
At the very top of that list is Julen Lopetegui. He remains best-remembered for his failure to coach the Spain national team at the 2018 World Cup, when he was sacked on the eve of the tournament after Real Madrid announced that he would be their new manager after the tournament. Lopetegui lasted just four months at the Bernabeu before getting sacked, but he was picked up by Sevilla, where he won the Europa League in 2020.
There was a time not so long ago when a club in the Premier League relegation places in need of a new manager would inevitably be linked with any one of a number of English ‘firefighters’ , but times are different now.
