Zidane crosses an area of mess that never ends after 18 exceptional months, crowned with two victories in the Champions League and a La Liga.
Completely dropped in the league standings with 19 points behind FC Barcelona, humiliated in the Copa del Rey by Leganes, Madrid has only the Champion League to save its season.
In case of failure in this competition, it could be that the French manager, who has extended his contract until June 2020, ends the season before giving up his place.
According to the Spanish press, the favorite manager to succeed Zidane is none other than Joachim Low. At the head of the German team since 2006, the 58-year-old is very pleased with Florentino Perez, who sees him as the ideal coach to carry out the announced revolution on the side of the Los Blancos.
It must be said that in almost 12 years with Germany team, Low has done an absolutely incredible job, taking his country to the top of the world in 2014 in Brazil.
Taking Madrid is not an easy task, and leading a host of stars everyday is much more complicated than taking care of a selection. The German manager has already shown that he has the means to run a club, winning notably the German Cup with Stuttgart in 1998 or the Austrian championship with Tirol Innsbruck in 2002.

No doubt that in case of concrete approach, the manager of the year 2014 could be interested.
Tottenham Hotspur Mauricio Pachettino meanwhile, is also in frame to take up Madrid job at the end of the season.
Pachettino started his managerial career at Espanyol in 2009, and in 2014, he was announced as the new first team manager of Premier League club Tottenham Hotspur. Spurs finished runners-up to champions Chelsea in the Premier League table last season.
