The Seville team would be looking for the right coach to relieve the Basque coach
Sampaoli, who already managed Sevilla in the 2016/17 season, would be the best positioned for the position
Atlético de Madrid attacked the Sánchez-Pizjuán last Saturday and caused an emergency meeting of the management leadership of the Seville to make a decision about the future of Julen Lopetegui. After the defeat against Manchester City in the Champions League, the continuity of the Basque coach was up in the air but he finally decided to give him another vote of confidence. This time it seems his hours at the helm of Sevilla are numbered.
In the aforementioned meeting, it would have been decided to do without Lopetegui, whose dismissal could be announced in the next few hours according to ‘Estadio Deportivo’. Certain names are already being considered to replace him and the one that has the most strength is that of jorge sampaoli.
In case you are the chosen one, he would return to what was his home during the season 2016/2017, where he finished fourth in LaLiga with 72 points. Later, he set out to direct the Argentine team to take it to the 2018 World Cup in Russia.
However, the club would have already contacted Marcellin Y Rafa Benitez, both rejecting the proposal to take charge of Sevilla at this time. This Sunday morning Lopetegui has a training session with the team scheduled to prepare for next Wednesday’s Champions League match against Borussia Dortmundalthough he may no longer be on the bench.
