West Ham set to keep faith with Lopetegui for Wolves match

Under pressure Julen Lopetegui is set to take charge of West Ham for their crucial Premier League game with Wolves on Monday.

Lopetegui's future as Hammers manager has been debated by senior West Ham figures in the wake of Tuesday's 3-1 defeat at Leicester City.

However, multiple sources have confirmed a club board decision has been made for Lopetegui to stay in place for now.

BBC Sport reported on Wednesday that a decision about his immediate future would be made before the weekend.

Club sources acknowledge the Leicester loss and the home defeat by Arsenal immediately before it have stripped away the optimism generated by victory at Newcastle on 25 November and a lot of fans want a change.
