The Spanish giants are considering their options and are already looking at the prospect of having the Tottenham boss come to the Santiago Bernabèu.
Julen Lopetegui is expected to be relieved of his duties very soon with the club currently sitting in tenth position. It's a dicey situation and reports have it that the El Classico could be his last game in charge of the Los Blancos outfit.
Real Madrid have listed some potential signings, coaches who have the potential to perform and overturn the poor form of the club.
Should Pochettino prove too hard a nut to crack, the obvious choice would be Antonio Conte whom they've already marked as top priority. It's even reported that they are ready to offer £40 million for his service.
