The defeat at Anfield has sparked numerous questions in the past few hours. The “COPE” channel reported that Real Madrid has already identified a possible replacement for Carlo Ancelotti.
The loss to Liverpool served as a wake-up call for the club, complicating the team’s prospects in the Champions League. With three defeats in five matches, Real Madrid is at risk of an early exit from European competitions. This situation has led Florentino Pérez to prepare for the possibility of a coaching change.
According to El Partidazo de Cope journalist Roberto Morales, internal sources confirmed that Santiago Solari was informed two weeks ago to prepare to take over if needed. It seems Pérez is once again considering Solari as a potential replacement, a move he has made in the past. While Ancelotti’s future is not yet fully decided, the next few weeks will be crucial in determining his fate. Morales added that if Ancelotti is let go, Solari is the likely option, and he has already been notified of this possibility.
If the team’s performance continues to falter, Ancelotti’s departure could happen sooner than expected. Solari is now unofficially positioning himself as a frontrunner to succeed the Italian coach should the club make the decision to part ways with him.
