#3 Real Madrid
The Spanish giants entered the season on a brilliant note, putting up impressive performances in both La Liga and the Champions League. Carlo Ancelotti received a lot of praise after his side slew Paris Saint-Germain in the UCL Round of 16 earlier this month.
However, Los Blancos were humiliated 4-0 by Barcelona in El Clasico last weekend at the Santiago Bernabeu. Hence, the atmosphere surrounding Ancelotti has quickly changed. As it stands, there are feelings of distraughtness gradually coming up at the club.
Ancelotti will need to do all he can to ensure Real Madrid do not suffer a late capitulation this term. Otherwise, his job will be under huge threat ahead of the upcoming campaign.
#2 Manchester United
Manchester United appear to be going deeper in crisis. Even Cristiano Ronaldo's return hasn't been enough to paper the cracks at Old Trafford this season. The Red Devils have failed to impress with their exploits on the pitch.
As it stands, United will end their fifth campaign without any silverware. They're already out of the Premier League title race and have also been eliminated from all cup competitions.
Rangnick was signed as interim manager in November 2021 after the sacking of Ole Gunnar Solskjaer. As per his contract, the German is set to take a consultancy role at Old Trafford after the season. However, according to The Sun, the club were considering offering him a permanent managerial role next season as well.
However, his chances of being appointed as a permanent manager at the end of his interim spell are almost non-existent after recent results. He will most likely make way for another tactician to take over the reigns in the summer.
#1 Paris Saint-Germain
Seeing PSG at the top of the Ligue 1 table seems to be nothing but a mere illusion. The reality is that the Parisians are enduring an underwhelming outing under the watch of Mauricio Pochettino. In fact, it wouldn't be far-fetched to say this is one of their most disappointing seasons ever as per fans and pundits alike.
The French giants were expected to make a statement in Europe after the summer transfer window they had. They signed the likes of Lionel Messi, Gianluigi Donnarumma, Achraf Hakimi and Sergio Ramos last summer. However, they ended up getting humiliated once again by Real Madrid in the Champions League round of 16.
They were also knocked out of the French Cup after falling to Nice in the tournament in February. PSG are known for exercising very little patience when it comes to getting rid of coaches. Everything indicates there'll be a managerial change at the Parc des Princes in the summer.
