Graham Potter has likely reset his salary expectations since leaving Chelsea after emerging as the frontrunner to replace Julen Lopetegui as the West Ham manager.Potter’s wage demands would be in a similar region to what Lopetegui is currently earning at the London Stadium.
There was an initial expectation Lopetegui, 58, would be sacked last week following the 3-1 defeat to Leicester City amid pressure from the fans and a reported bust-up with defender Jean-Clair Todibo. But the Spaniard was given one more chance to save his job against his former club Wolves on Monday, where his side secured a 2-1 victory.Potter, 49, is the clear frontrunner to take over at the London Stadium if the club’s hierarchy decide to sack LopeteguiWest Ham currently sit 14th in the Premier League table, having won five and lost seven of their opening 15 games of the campaign.
“I would think on a wage for wage basis comparing his wages versus Lopetegui’s, I doubt it would be any more expensive.“I think compensation for Lopetegui might be an issue. “But sometimes you have just got to take the pain of the compensation, there is not a lot you can do.”
