Another name that is doing the rounds is Guti, who is a former Real Madrid player himself like Santiago Solari and Zinedine Zidane. He is emerging as another front-runner if Real Madrid board decides to sack Julen Lopetegui.

With an all-important clash vs FC Barcelona lurking around the corner and La Liga crown slipping away, Florentino Perez and the board have lost their confidence in Lopetegui and they must seek his replacement as soon as possible.

Guti is also an ex Real Madrid youth coach who is currently working with Besiktas as an assistant manager. He knows the club well and is also hugely popular with the fans.

Like Zinedine Zidane, Guti is inexperienced as a coach but Zidane's success in a short time with Real Madrid could propel the board to view Guti as another similar and attractive alternative who can bring success to the team currently languishing 7th on La Liga table.
