The situation of Graham Potter, former Chelsea coach, is at the heart of the football news, particularly concerning a potential coaching position at Wolverhampton Wanderers. After a disappointing start to the season, during which the Wolves currently find themselves at the bottom of the Premier League, changes are being considered.
Wolverhampton in a delicate position
The Wolverhampton Wanderers have had a disastrous start this season, having won no matches after seven outings. Their only point was obtained from a 1-1 draw against Nottingham Forest at the season opener. This series of poor results puts considerable pressure on coach Gary O’Neil, who has been in charge for over a year. If the team’s performances do not improve, his dismissal may be considered.
Graham Potter at the top of the candidates list
Should O’Neil be replaced, Graham Potter would be among the coaches considered to take the reins of the Wolves. According to some sources, Potter expresses a keen interest in this position, viewing it as an attractive opportunity within an established Premier League team. However, other reports indicate growing interest from Manchester United in Potter, complicating his potential move to Wolverhampton.
The situation at Manchester United
Manchester United could also evolve rapidly in its coaching situation. Erik ten Hag, currently in charge of the team, is under pressure, and discussions have reportedly already begun with candidates, including Potter. If the Manchester United management decided to part ways with Ten Hag, it could prompt Potter to seize this opportunity rather than join the Wolves.
A promising record for Graham Potter
In terms of performance, Graham Potter has an interesting record in the Premier League. Compared to Gary O’Neil, he has posted better results, notably with Brighton where he managed to elevate the team to mid-table, before leaving the club for Chelsea. His experience could work in his favor in the prospect of becoming a coach at Wolverhampton or elsewhere.
The situation of the Wolves, combined with the uncertainty within Manchester United, raises doubts about the immediate future of Graham Potter and the upcoming decisions regarding coaches in the Premier League.
