Behind the curtain, Lopetegi’s hand to Sepahan’s rival

According to Fars news agency, the Saudi “Al-Riyazia” newspaper announced a few hours ago that Marcelo Guiardo, the head coach of River Plate, was chosen as the new head coach of Al-Ittihad Jeddah. Julen Lopetegui, the former head coach of Real, was also one of the options of the Saudi team, but he rejected their offer.

In a report, Saudi Arabia’s Al-Sharq Al-Awsat newspaper revealed the reason for the Spanish head coach’s rejection of Sepahan’s Asian rival. This media wrote: Lopetegui has an offer from an English Premier League club, so he will leave for England soon.

The former head coach of Real Madrid refused to go to the Saudi League due to his Premier League offer. In the return match, Al-Ittihad is going to play with Argentinian Gayardo against Sepahan.
