JUST IN: Julen Lopetegui Named West Ham’s New Head Coach

Date:

Former Wolves boss Julen Lopetegui has been appointed the new West Ham head coach; the Spaniard replaces David Moyes, who won the UEFA Conference League with the Hammers in 2022/23 season

The 57-year-old will work closely with technical director Tim Steidten – who will have more control over the recruitment. When Moyes was reappointed in 2019, it was under the proviso that he would have a big say in recruitment and transfers.

But with Steidten’s appointment last summer, West Ham are moving towards a more European-based model.

“I feel that we have a fantastic platform,” Lopetegui said.

“I think the last few years have been very good years to have this base, of course, but my ambition as a coach is always to be better and better, to achieve more and bigger aims and to encourage and improve the players, the team, and to compete because football is about this – to compete. We are very ambitious about this.
