West Ham boss Julen Lopetegui has returned to Spain to attend the funeral of his father Jose, who died on Tuesday aged 94. Jose Lopetegui was a champion weightlifter who competed in the Basque sport of stone-lifting. Hammers head coach Lopetegui had last visited his father during the international break in November. He is expected to be back in the dug-out for Saturday's Premier League visit of Brighton. In the meantime Lopetegui's coaching staff, Pablo Sanz and Edu Rubio, will take training. #westham #julenlopetegui #premierleague #whufc
