According to reports from Defensa Central, Real Madrid president Florentino Perez is contemplating a shocking move to appoint Como boss Cesc Fabregas as the club’s new manager, should Carlo Ancelotti leave this summer.
Ancelotti, who has one year remaining on his contract, has faced intense criticism, and speculation suggests he may depart to become the next Brazil coach.
Bayer Leverkusen’s Xabi Alonso is widely tipped to succeed Ancelotti, but if Real Madrid is unable to secure their top target, Fabregas could emerge as a surprise candidate.
The report highlights Perez’s willingness to consider alternative options, and Fabregas, a former Barcelona and Chelsea midfielder, could be an unexpected choice to take the reins at the Santiago Bernabeu.
