Lopetegui targets Premier League after Real Madrid nightmare

Despite being sacked from two of the highest profile jobs in world football in 2018, the 52-year-old sees a route back into top-tier coaching

Former Real Madrid and Spain boss Julen Lopetegui is eyeing a return to management in the Premier League after breaking his silence following a nightmare year.

The 52-year-old lost two of the highest profile jobs in world football during 2018 during a haunting 138-day spell for the ex-goalkeeper.

Sacked days before La Roja began their World Cup campaign, he lasted just 14 matches at Santiago Bernabeu.
