Who will replace Carlo Ancelotti? Contenders and odds for the next Real Madrid manager

Carlo Ancelotti is expected to leave Real Madrid at the end of the season.

When asked about the future after the Champions League defeat last night, the Italians were non-interesting, but it is likely that Madrid will move in a different direction in the summer.

It’s not an easy task for someone who needs a major reconstruction to take over.

Here we check out all odds competitors offered by Bet365 (1300 UK time as of April 17)

Xabi Alonso – Evens

The outstanding candidate and someone who may have been in charge did not choose to spend a year with Bayer Leverkusen after leading the first Bundesliga title last season.

When asked recently what he planned to do at the end of the season, the former Madrid midfielder was vague and it wouldn’t be surprising if negotiations had begun.

Alonso has been working hard to replicate the success of last season, which may be that he will not have the chance to work on a job of this scale again.

Jurgen Klopp – 5/2

Klopp left Liverpool at the end of last season to serve as Red Bull’s global football leader and oversee its stable club.

But the report shows that he is disillusioned and focuses on returning to management.

Like Ancelotti, he has a connection with the job of the Brazilian national team, but it seems more appropriate to work in clubs in Europe.

The Germans will bring very rare energy to Madrid.

Andoni Iraola – 5/1

Iraola did an excellent job at Bournemouth, another idea admired by Madrid President Florentino Perez.

Quiet and modest, Basque adopts a high-tempo football brand that takes time to implement, but can be devastating considering the talent of the players he can use.

The question is, how did a man who operates in smaller clubs deal with the huge demands on the Real Madrid boss during his coaching career?

Zinedine Zidane – 12/1

Madrid has a habit of becoming a former manager. Fabio Capello and Ancelotti have two spells, and for Zidane, that will be one-third.

The Frenchman has not reappeared in management after leaving Madrid for the second time in May 2021, and although he was closely linked to Didier Deschamps’ replacement when he quits as French boss after the World Cup next summer, he wouldn’t be surprised if he swayed on Bernabeu.

Two spells as boss have had a huge success, winning two La Liga titles and three Champions League games.

Michelle – 20/1

The former Real Madrid midfielder is a prominent player for Los Blancos, with over 400 appearances.

He worked briefly in the Real Madrid Youth System but was fired after a disagreement with the then-Ramon Calderon.

He has been enjoying a global career since mantras like Getafe, Sevilla and Marseille. He is the current boss of Saudi Arabia.

Other competitors

Former Madrid forward Raul (8/1) is currently in charge of the club’s reserve team Castilla and may be promoted.

Jose Mourinho (16/1) is an outside shot as his career seems to be waning.

Mikel Arteta (33/1) is a very upward trajectory person. Can the man who inspired Madrid to fall last night rescue them?
