After Real Madrid's defeat against Shakhtar Donestk, names of candidates have already begun to emerge to replace Zidane on the white bench. Among all of them there are two that sound very strong: Pochettino and Raúl.
Pochettino he is currently without a team so Real Madrid should not pay anything for his signing. He is a coach who has always liked Florentino Pérez and Pochettino has never hidden that he would be more than delighted to coach Real Madrid. In 2018 he was very close to directing the Whites, when he finished his contract with Tottenham. He renewed with the English team two weeks before Zidane say goodbye and Real Madrid, despite being the favorite, did not go for him because Levy, the owner of Tottenham closed in band with the departure of Pochettino.
Raul Gonzalez It is the other option that sounds strong to be the replacement dand Zidane in the event that the Frenchman leaves Real Madrid. The former player is the coach of Castilla and this past summer he conquered the Youth League, the youth Champions, for the first time in the history of the white club. Raúl would repeat the story of Zidane who went from Castilla to the first team in 2016 replacing Benitez. The Frenchman broke all the molds and in the club they think that this story could be repeated with Raúl. Although right now, Pochettino is ahead of the white myth in the preferences of those responsible for Real Madrid.
