Real Madrid news: revelation of a potential meeting with Antonio Conte | Football | sport

This is the opinion of the former president of the Madrid club, Roman Calderon, who spoke about the problems faced by the giants of La Liga.

Real Madrid are looking for a new boss after sacking Julen Lopetegui earlier this week after a disappointing start to the season.

Lopetegui only takes the role in the summer following Zinedine Zidane's departure, but is shown the door after a 5-1 defeat against rival Barcelona.

Tale, also referred by Chelsea during the summer, is the favorite to take power in the Spanish capital.

But Calderon, president of Los Blancos between 2006 and 2009, revealed a request made by Conté to the club.

"He's been asked three years and to come with five people and have his hands free for signings and transfers," Calderon told BBC Radio 5.'s "Football Daily Euro Leagues" broadcast live

"But the president [Florentino Perez] refuses to accept it. [19659002] "I do not think Antoni o Conte will be the coach that Bernabeu is waiting for.

"He's like Jose Mourinho – a defensive coach normally composed of three central defenders playing football in counterattack.

" That's not what Real Madrid is waiting for. The president had already tried that with Mourinho.

"They did not win the Champions League and he left the club in a bad situation."

Santiago Solari replaced the club at the head of Bernabeu's management team. Real Madrid is looking for a permanent boss.

And the star of Madrid Nacho Fernandez has vowed to continue fighting under the orders of Solari. he is experienced and has won titles with Madrid.

"We, the players, do not have to make those decisions and we will see what will happen, but he is an excellent coach.

" The C team was with Lopetegui but we were not lucky. Now we have a new coach, who is excited, and we will fight to the death for him too.

"It was a difficult time after the Clasico,

" But it's football and, fortunately, we had a game very shortly after, that we wanted to win and especially to score goals. to lose as the other day is painful, but fortunately there are still more games to come. "
