With Real Madrid 19 points behind Barcelona in the Spanish league table, it’s obvious that Zinedine Zidane’s job will be questioned by the Spanish papers. Especially for those from Catalonia, who love to watch the capital side burning.
On Wednesday, Sport brings four managers who could be replacing the Frenchman at the end of the season, and even though there’s a new name in the list, Tottenham Hotspur boss Mauricio Pochettino still won’t get off the top.
Sport claims Juventus boss Massimiliano Allegri is now being considered for the job as well, especially because of his large experience training several Italian sides, and taking Juve to the last Champions League final.
Jurgen Klopp and Joachim Low would be the other options for a permanent replacement, while in case of needing a temporary manager, Santiago Solari or Guti would be the main names.
Mauricio Pochettino is said to be the first option for being liked for his character, his work at Tottenham and his supposed desire to command Real Madrid one day.
There’s obviously no information on talks with the Spurs boss so far, even because Zidane’s sacking hasn’t even been decided yet. But in case Real Madrid go for a new manager, then Pochettino will apparently be the first they get in touch with.
