Real Madrid: The chosen one by Florentino Pérez to replace Ancelotti

Florentino Pérez has a clear objective: to bring Zinedine Zidane back to the Real Madrid bench if Carlo Ancelotti fails to redirect the team's course.

The recent 0-4 thrashing in the Clásico against FC Barcelona has revealed the internal issues of the White Team, and the club's president is starting to lose confidence in Ancelotti's ability to handle a high-level squad. Pérez sees Zidane, an iconic figure in Madrid's history, as the ideal solution to restore the competitiveness and winning spirit expected from a team of this caliber.

Florentino Pérez doubts Carlo Ancelotti

Real Madrid is in second place in LaLiga, six points behind the Blaugranas, reflecting a concerning situation for a team aiming to dominate in Spain and Europe. Despite having top-tier players, Ancelotti has struggled to find balance on the field and fully unleash the potential of figures like Kylian Mbappé. The departure of Toni Kroos left a void in midfield that the Italian coach has failed to fill, adding another obstacle to his management.

Zinedine Zidane, who has already proven his effectiveness leading Real Madrid in two previous stints, emerges as an appealing alternative to guide the team towards new successes. Under his leadership, the club secured three consecutive Champions League titles and a LaLiga trophy, leaving behind a legacy of triumphs that Florentino Pérez now hopes to reignite. The prospect of Zidane's third spell at Real Madrid not only signifies a new chapter in his relationship with the club but also a bet on recovering the style and commitment demanded by the fans. It remains to be seen if the Frenchman, who is a free agent, is interested in accepting the challenge for the third time.
