West Ham are close to agreeing a deal for Julen Lopetegui to take over as their new manager.
Premier League side West Ham are reportedly set to part company with David Moyes at the end of the season and talks with Lopetegui are gathering pace.
According to the Guardian, negotiations are still ongoing but the fate of David Moyes seems to be sealed.
Lopetegui to replace Moyes as West Ham boss
West Ham are actively looking for a replacement and have considered several candidates.
Talks were held with Sporting Lisbon’s Rúben Amorim last month and some figures within the London Stadium believe the 39-year-old would be the best person to take over from Moyes.
However, Amorim’s contract contains a €15m release clause and there are doubts over whether West Ham are willing to pay that.
That has left Lopetegui, out of work since leaving Wolves last summer, as the frontrunner.
