Hwang Hee-chan will change his coach, O'Neill, who has lost four consecutive games + poor performance in the relegation zone

Transfer expert Fabrizio Romano said on his personal channel on the 15th (Korea time) that O'Neill was replaced. There is no official announcement of the club yet.
If it is dismissed as reported, it is a foregone conclusion. Wolverhampton fell into a four-game losing streak with a 1-2 defeat in the English Premier League (EPL) in the 2024-2025 season against Ipswich on the 14th. With only two wins (three draws and 11 losses) in 16 games, he struggled in 19th place, which is in the relegation zone. The defeat against Ipswich, a relegation ally, seems to have dealt an indelible blow to O'Neill.
O'Neill made a precipitation to change his team captain from Mario Lemina to Nelsong Semedo ahead of the Ipswich match, but he failed to change the team's atmosphere. After the Ipswich match, striker Matheus Cunha committed a non-sports act of hitting a safety guard in the face after a scuffle.
For Hwang Hee-chan, who played as a substitute in the second half after recovering from his injury in November, a change of coach could be a new opportunity.
