Spanish newspaper Marca reports this morning that Real Madrid have already begun planning to replace Manuel Pellegrini as coach following their shock Champions League exit to Lyon last week.
A sixth successive exit at the first knockout round of the Champions League has focused the search at the Bernabeu to a coach who can guide Real Madrid to success in Europe.
As a result, the four names Real Madrid president Florentino Perez is mulling over are Jose Mourinho (Inter Milan), Rafa Benitez (Liverpool), Fabio Capello (England) and Carlo Ancelotti (Chelsea).
Real Madrid have gone through 10 coaches during the past 10 seasons and unless Pellegrini guides the club to a league title success with ease over Barcelona the former Villareal coach will be sacked in the summer.
Marca adds that whoever comes in will have to be a former winner of the Champions League who can restore the club’s status as one of the top clubs in European competition.
Fabio Capello has already had two spells as coach at the Bernabeu whilst Rafa Benitez was reserve team coach at Real Madrid earlier in his career. Arsene Wenger ruled himself out of the running last week.
