One name high on their shortlist is Michael Carrick, a former Manchester United star and a promising manager at Middlesbrough.
Carrick, a beloved figure at Old Trafford, enjoyed a glittering playing career before transitioning into coaching.
Since taking over at Middlesbrough, he has transformed the team into genuine promotion contenders, impressing with his tactical acumen and ability to inspire players.
West Ham reportedly values Carrick’s ties to the club, given his early playing days with the Hammers.
If Lopetegui fails to deliver against Wolves, Carrick could emerge as the leading candidate to step into the managerial role at West Ham, according to the Mirror.
The 43-year-old’s growing reputation in management and his history with both West Ham and Manchester United make him a compelling option for the London club.
