West Ham's management stated, "The first half of the 2024-25 season has not aligned with the club's ambitions and the club has therefore taken action in line with its objectives." This demonstrates a clear disconnect between performance expectations and achievements, leading to Lopetegui's dismissal.
Former West Ham boss Julen Lopetegui managed to secure only seven wins in all competitions after spending nearly £120 million on new players, which highlights the club's struggles under his pragmatic management style.
Reports emerged that Graham Potter is set to replace Julen Lopetegui, as he awaits the club's confirmation. Potter, previously at Brighton and Chelsea, could bring a fresh approach to the beleaguered Hammers.
Despite securing an unexpected win against Wolves in December, Lopetegui's tenure quickly soured with consecutive heavy defeats, ultimately forcing the club's hand to restructure the coaching staff.
