Julen Lopetegui will remain in charge at West Ham United until at least their next [Premier League](https://www.express.co.uk/latest/premier-league) game against Wolves, according to reports.
The 58-year-old is skating on thin ice after overseeing a dismal start to his reign at the London Stadium. The Hammers slipped to their latest defeat on Tuesday night as they were beaten by Leicester City, scoring just once despite having 31 shots on goal.
Lopetegui will be given at least one more game to save his job after a crunch board meeting on Thursday morning, according to the Daily Mail.
It is said that he will remain in the dugout until Monday's fixture against Wolves, who were thrashed by Everton on Wednesday.
The report adds that senior figures at West Ham have lost faith in Lopetegui after only a few months in charge, believing that his appointment was a mistake.
They are said to have already identified four candidates to replace the Spaniard if he is relieved of his duties. Edin Terzic, Sergio Conceicao and Kasper Hjulmand are thought to be in the running, while Graham Potter is also under consideration.
