the season, ending in 20th place. Three days after the season concluded he resigned, saying he felt "the time is right for a new challenge, and also for a new manager to come into Millwall with fresh ideas". The Millwall board accepted his decision "with reluctance". Wolverhampton Wanderers On 31 May 2013 Jackett was announced as the new head coach of Wolverhampton Wanderers following the sacking of Dean Saunders. He took over with the club competing at the third level for the first time since 1989, and began his tenure at the club with a goalless draw at Preston. The team went on to record a run of victories which earned Jackett a nomination as the August League One Manager of the Month, and which brought the club their best ever start in a league campaign. Jackett was again nominated for the Manager of the Month Award in October following an unbeaten run where his side earned 10 points from four games. Under his command, Wolves gained promotion back to the Championship at the first attempt as League One champions and set a new divisional points record of 103. At the conclusion of the season, he was announced as joint-winner of the LMA Awards Manager of the Year for League One, having earlier won the monthly award for March 2014. He then led the club to a seventh-placed finish in the Championship, narrowly missing out on the playoffs. The following season was less successful as the team finished in 14th place, having failed to mount a promotion challenge. In July 2016 the club was purchased by the Chinese conglomerate Fosun International. Although media speculation cited Julen Lopetegui as being Jackett's replacement upon the takeover being completed, the new owners initially confirmed that they planned to work with Jackett after Lopetegui was appointed coach of the Spain national team. However, four days later, on 29 July 2016, the club confirmed that Jackett's contract had been terminated.
