West Ham boss Julen Lopetegui’s position looks under serious threat while technical director Tim Steidten is staying away from the training ground as the club’s problems deepen.
There are reports that former Brighton and Chelsea boss Graham Potter has been lined up to replace Spaniard Lopetegui until the end of the season. West Ham have declined to comment.
The Hammers did say that Steidten, 45, is absent from their Rush Green HQ as he is focusing on the January transfer window which opened last week.
But the situation has echoes of last season, when the German’s relationship with then boss David Moyes became strained towards the end of his tenure.
Lopetegui’s position as Hammers head coach was plunged back into doubt following consecutive heavy defeats by Liverpool and Manchester City, while Steidten is a known admirer of Potter.
But Steidten is also under the spotlight having led the club’s summer recruitment drive, which has so far proved a major disappointment.
