Julen Lopetegui became the new manager of Wolves after initially rejecting them.
The World Cup will stop the premier league from starting on November 14th.
Bruno Lage was dismissed as the club's first choice to take over, but he chose to stay at home to be with his elderly father.
The chairman of the Wolves said that Julen is a top coach with excellent experience at an elite level of the game.
Julen has been our number one choice to manage Wolves since the beginning and we look forward to welcoming him and his team when they join us.
The first match of Lopetegui's tenure will be in the English premier league.
After three years in charge of Sevilla, the former Real Madrid coach was fired in October after a defeat in the group stage of the European club competition.
Sevilla won the Europa League title in 2020 under Lopetegui's leadership.
His Wolves predecessor Lage was sacked after a run of one win in 15 premier league matches.
The club had previously stated that Davis would remain in charge until at least 2023.
Under Davis, Wolves have lost three of their past five games and are second from the bottom of the league, two points behind 17th-ranked Saints.
The last game before the World Cup break will be on November 12th when they play in the final of the FA Cup at Wembley.
The man who was due to coach Spain at the World Cup only to be fired days before the tournament is familiar to Wolves chairman Shi.
The pair talked about the takeover of the club by a Chinese conglomerate and the subsequent appointment of Lopetegui.
He was fired as Real Madrid's coach after a loss to Barcelona and joined Sevilla in the summer of 2019.
One cap for Spain was won by a former goalkeeper.
Guillembalague is a Spanish football expert.
He brings more than football to Sevilla, he brings tactics, possession, dominating games, and attacking. It was great to see it work at Sevilla.
Sevilla are the most prestigious club in Spain. A team that wasn't the best individually was made better by the use of collective answers, but always with the chance of winning.
It showed that Lopetegui can maximize the potential of a team as one of the top managers in the world.
It had to come to an end between a club that was not investing in players properly having lost Jules Kounde and Diego Carlos and a manager that squeezed a lot out of a side that was not properly recycled.
He took Sevilla into the playoffs for three straight seasons, something that hadn't been done before. I thought he was tired. Something new was needed for him to give a lot of energy.
He took time off so he could be close to his dad. Wolves said they'd wait when Lopetegui said no.
Lopetegui is resting and giving time to his dad because things have not improved. He's in a place where he's ready to work again and there isn't much he can do.
It's going to be difficult to change a negative dynamic in football. He knows that the side is going to improve. This is a good choice for Wolves fans.
