Real Madrid are reportedly lining up Mauricio Pochettino and Massimiliano Allegri as possible replacements for manager Zinedine Zidane following a run of one win in five.

Real Madrid have reportedly looked to former Tottenham Hotspur manager Mauricio Pochettino and ex-Juventus boss Massimiliano Allegri as replacements for under-fire Zinedine Zidane.

Los Blancos were defeated 2-1 by Real Betis on Sunday, allowing arch-rivals Barcelona to reclaim their spot at the top of La Liga.

According to Marca, Real Madrid's president Florentino Perez has told Zidane that his job is safe, despite a run of just one win in their last five matches across all competitions.

However, rumours are now circulating that either Pochettino or Allegri is set to replace the 47-year-old.

Pochettino reportedly sees Zidane's current role as the dream job, with the Argentinian rejecting a move to Barcelona earlier this season.

Real Madrid are set to face Manchester City in the second leg of the last-16 Champions League clash next week, having endured a 2-1 loss to the Citizens last month.
