Julen Lopetegui exclusive Former Real Madrid boss on why he wants to return to Premier League and Wolves memories

Julen Lopetegui, the former Real Madrid boss, has expressed his desire to return to the Premier League and his fond memories of his time at Wolves. After parting ways with Wolves five months ago, Lopetegui has taken a break from his managerial career, which has included stints at Porto, Spain, Real Madrid, and Sevilla. Currently residing in Wolverhampton, Lopetegui is ready for his next challenge and hopes it will be in England. During his break, he has been busy exploring the UK and immersing himself in British culture, with a particular focus on British history due to his wife's interest. Lopetegui has also been using this time to prepare for his return to management, engaging with organizations such as the PFA, LMA, and PGMOL. Despite offers from other countries, Lopetegui has declined them in favor of staying in England, as he believes there is still much to achieve with his team. He admires the special way football is embraced in the country and is eager to fulfill his dreams here.
