Monchi worked with Lopetegui at Sevilla and said: "He won't have any problems because he is used to working in big teams and, therefore, in situations of great pressure and demand. I'm thinking about Porto, Real Madrid, the Spanish team...
"Yes, it may be a difficult moment to take charge of Milan taking into account what has happened in recent months, but Julen has great experience in this aspect as well. When Sevilla came to us, the club was coming off two very difficult years. And the same thing happened to Wolverhampton. who faced a deep crisis and recovered.
"Julen is an ideal figure because he knows how to get the best out of players, and not only that, we must take into account another important aspect: he is a coach used to working with and for the club. He understands and interprets the club's needs perfectly.
"He has his demands, his requests, as is normal, but he always works in harmony with the club."
