Real Madrid Eye Zidane’s Return Amid Ancelotti Pressure

Carlo Ancelotti’s position as Real Madrid’s head coach is increasingly precarious, with the team failing to meet the high expectations of the club’s management, especially after the signing of Kylian Mbappé. The current performances have not reflected the expected growth in quality, raising concerns within the leadership.

According to Elgoldigital, tension is mounting at Real Madrid, and Ancelotti has been handed a critical ultimatum: show progress in the upcoming El Clásico or face the possibility of being dismissed. Club president Florentino Pérez is reportedly prepared to part ways with the experienced Italian should the team fail to deliver.

In preparation, Real Madrid has already identified two potential replacements. One is Massimiliano Allegri, who is currently without a club. However, the preferred choice is Zinedine Zidane, whom Pérez would love to see return for a third stint as head coach. Although Zidane remains hesitant about a return, cautious talks between both parties have begun, though no commitments have been made so far.

The situation at the Bernabéu is being closely watched, as Zidane’s potential return could mark another chapter in Real Madrid’s storied history.
