Santiago Solari arrived at Real Madrid in October 2018 as a fire extinguisher after the dismissal of Julen Lopetegui. And now, in a different context, he is among the candidates to return to the 'Merengue' bench. He would do it also as an interim, but to lead the Spanish team during the Club World Cup, an event in which everything indicates that Carlo Ancelotti will no longer be there.
Esteban Solari, brother of the rosarino and current coach of Godoy Cruz in Argentina, spoke to 'ESPN' about his older brother's chances of being in the United States with 'Los Blancos'. Although he does not dare to venture, he does believe that Santiago would be delighted to take over the reins for a few weeks.
“It's a good question. I know that he has always been close to Carlo Ancelotti, they get along very well, but Real Madrid is Huge. Santi has been there for many years and is always at the service of the club,” explained the middle of the three Solari brothers: David, Esteban and Santiago.
According to 'Marca', Real Madrid will announce after the 'Clasico' against Barcelona that the Italian coach will leave at the end of the season. After that, it would remain to be seen if the club immediately announces his replacement. “That's something that only Florentino Perez and Carlo Ancelotti know,” Esteban Solari spat, to which the ‘ESPN’ journalist replied with a laugh: ”And Santiago's brother too, but well, I understand.”
The option of Xabi Alonso is the one that sounds with more force to be the one who replaces Ancelotti at the Santiago Bernabeu. It happens that the Toulouse-born player finishes his contract with Bayer Leverkusen on June 30th and it seems difficult to release him before the Club World Cup. Although Real Madrid would like to have him and Alexander-Arnold in the event, it will be complicated and the possibility of Solari temporarily taking over the bench is there.
