Tuttomercatoweb reports that West Ham and Julen Lopetegui are almost to an agreement to replace David Moyes.
On Sunday, April 21, the Italian outlet announced on its website that Lopetegui would not be joining AC Milan as he is nearing agreement to take a post at West Ham.
After the crushing defeat at Crystal Palace, United is rumored to have stepped up talks with Lopetegui, with a three-year contract being discussed.
It’s possible that David Moyes is leaving West Ham.
Speaking following the 5-2 loss at Selhurst Park, Moyes acknowledged that he might not be in control of his own destiny.
There has been a prevailing perception that the manager and the club could part ways in the summer, even though he was extended an offer for a new contract earlier this year.
In fact, it’s possible that the process is accelerating now that there isn’t any more European football and outcomes like the 5-2 loss at Palace.
Many will question if Lopetegui is the best choice for the Irons given that his most recent job saw him quit fellow Premier League side Wolves.

Although the CV undoubtedly checks a lot of boxes, some may question if this was akin to replacing Moyes with Manuel Pellegrini in the past.
This report gives the Irons a good idea of who their man is. We now have to wait for further information to see how this one turns out.
