Wolves target Julen Lopetegui is set to leave Sevilla in the coming days to pave the way for a possible move to Molineux.
Though not the sole candidate, Lopetegui is high on Wolves’ list to succeed Bruno Lage, who was sacked last Sunday following the 2-0 defeat at West Ham the previous day. For the trip to Chelsea on Saturday, Under-18 coach Steve Davis is expected to be in the technical area along with Under-21 boss James Collins.
Yet there is growing expectation in Spain that Lopetegui’s three-year tenure will come to an end, possibly after tonight’s/Wednesday’s Champions League meeting against Borussia Dortmund.
