Informed sources revealed to Asharq Al-Awsat that Spanish coach Julen Lopetegui is now at the top of the candidates to take over the position of technical management for the Al-Ittihad club team, succeeding the recently dismissed Portuguese Nuno Santo.
The federation made Lopetegui a major choice, as the Spaniard finds great acceptance among those in charge of the club thanks to his coaching career and previous experiences, in addition to being one of the biggest coaching names available at the present time.
According to the same sources, the management of the Al-Ittihad Club Company sent two official offers to the Spaniard, Julen Lopetegui, and the German, Oliver Glasner, and the Spaniard is considered the closest.
On the other hand, informed sources categorically denied the existence of negotiations with Alfred Schroeder, who was recently fired from the Emirati Al Ain training team, as the sources confirmed that he is not among the nominated options.
CEO Domingo Suarez is leading the negotiations directly with the Spanish coach, as those in charge of the Al-Jeddawi team want to resolve the negotiations as quickly as possible, especially since the team will enter, after the next break, decisive rounds in the AFC Champions League, in addition to the global battle that it will begin next September 12 against Auckland City. At the opening of the Club World Cup.
