Sevilla is starting to consider a possible change in the manager position, with Julen Lopetegui being the name gaining the most strength, as he already had a successful spell at the club. The team's instability under the direction of Javier García Pimienta has raised concerns within the board, who are closely monitoring the team's progress in the upcoming matches to make a final decision, as reported by Nacional Cat.

The results obtained this season have fallen below expectations, calling into question the current coach's continuity. Despite arriving with a good reputation following his performance at Las Palmas, the team's lack of consistency has led José Castro and José María del Nido Carrasco to contemplate a change if an immediate improvement is not seen.

Will Julen Lopetegui return to Sevilla?

In this scenario, Lopetegui's name is once again in the spotlight. His first spell at the club ended positively, with the Europa League victory and multiple Champions League qualifications. However, after a challenging start in his last season, he left the team. He then moved on to the Premier League, initially with Wolverhampton where he secured their status, and later with West Ham, from which he was recently dismissed.

Currently without a team, Lopetegui would be willing to return to Sevilla if García Pimienta's departure is confirmed. The final decision will rely on the team's performance in the upcoming matches, especially the crucial game against Valladolid. A stumble in that match could hasten the change in Sevilla's managerial position.
