Bayern Munich made contact again with coaching candidate Julen Lopetegui on Monday in a bid to find someone, anyone, to replace Thomas Tuchel at season’s end.
The former Real Madrid coach was said to have dismissed the Bayern interest already, but that did not stop another inquiry. However, Lopetegui is now set to become the next coach of Premier League side West Ham, as captured by The Athletic’s David Ornstein (via @iMiaSanMia):
