I'm surprised to see Wenger on that list LOL
Well, now probably you can find Wenger in all similar lists when one of big clubs are looking for manager Cheesy.
As Real Madrid fan, what do you think about Mourinho? Personally, I'm sceptical about him and I doubt that he would be best choice for Real.

I don't see Zidane going back to Real, it's not his style.
I don't see Zidane coming back, I think he would rather keep that 'legend' status in the club for winning the CL 3 times in a row. If he comes back and doesn't win anything than that could 'damage' his reputation.

Mourinho seems to be the main candidate to be the next manager, according to most bookies. Pochettino, Conte, and Joachim Low are also in the race. Here's a website if you guys want to check out the odds: https://www.thesackrace.com/teams/real-madrid

Some Spanish press is reporting that Zidane agree to comeback to Real from the next season
Perez will agree on any needed transfers and team rebuilding

If I had to bet, I'd say Zidane takes Allegri's place in Juve and Allegri goes to Real.

Max Allegri could be sacked if Juventus fails to reach the next stage of the Champions League according to some new reports. If that happens the media are speculating that Zinedine Zidane or Didier Deschamps could replace him. Even Pepe Guardiola was mentioned. But considering that both Deschamps and Guardiola have serious commitments, Zinedine Zidane could be the better choice out of those three.

Keep asking myself how is this possible that there are almost 2500 posts in this thread and only 4 votes in the pool?

Is this a good and entertaining thread and that is why there are so many comments or not?

This doesn't make sens.

French coach Claude Puel got sacked by Leicester after a 4-1 loss at home against Crystal Palace.

This has actually happened later than I had expected, He's managed to secure just one draw from their seven matches, and lost six matches, with three consecutive ones.

That draw was at Anfield against PL leaders LFC but yeah, their results have been poor so I guess the sacking is justified.

I think Chelsea can also still make an appeal via Court of Arbitration for Sport (CAS) If they could be allowed to make signing for the upcoming window while they will serve their ban for the next two consecutive windows after that, similar to what happened to Atletico Madrid, if i'm not mistaking.
Real Madrid also had a similar case back in 2017, they went to the CAS and their transfer ban was reduced[1].

About Atletico Madrid, the transfer ban was upheld even though they went to the CAS. So what Atletico did was buy players (the ban doesn't stop you from buying players) but since they couldn't register new players at the club (same as Chelsea), they couldn't play with Atletico, so they sent them out on loan.

Funny, even the Wall Street Journal is talking about Sarri's situation in Chelsea :

Chelsea May Have to Hit the Reset Button, Again

https://www.wsj.com/articles/chelsea-may-have-to-hit-the-reset-button-again-11550833200?mod=e2tw

To be fair to them sacking their manager(s) on a regular basis has brought them lots of success over the years.

Wow...  So does that mean Hazard's not going anywhere?  What's gonna happen?  Are loan moves not allowed too? 

And Sarri.  I guess he's staying.  Lmao.  No manager will ever want to be at Chelsea right now.  Grin

Damn Chelsea's board should be giving their core squad some hefty contracts soon.

That's a big blow to the club, What a situation to be stuck with!
I think this might be a blessing a in disguise because I'd expect the club who has a number of talented young players out on loan opt to make the most out of these players.

"ban on registering new players", I'm pretty sure that means no loans either. But they have A LOT of players on loan right now, so it's not like they're gonna miss not signing a new player. Out on loan: Morata, Bakayoko, Zouma, Moses, Kennedy, Batshuayi, Morata, Piazon, and like 30 others.

And Sarri.  I guess he's staying.  Lmao.  No manager will ever want to be at Chelsea right now.  Grin
Absolutely. New managers often demand the signing of new players, just like Sarri did when he asked for Jorginho. This ban changes everything, and like you said, they might have to offer Hazard, who's close to going to Real Madrid, a bigger paycheck just so he can stay...Although, they signed Pulisic to replace him...right?

I think it’ll just be a ban on incoming transfers which includes no loans coming in. I think Hazard will still push for hos move away.

Chelsea have been sancionted by the Fifa and the english club won't be able to make any transfers (specifically, buying players) for two transfer windows. The ban will be lifted in summer 2020.

Just when I was thinking that it was time to "clean-up" the squad and simply buy some new players in the next transfer window...And with this news, I doubt they're gonna sell Hazard to Real Madrid any time soon.

This ban is a very strict one. Chelsea should be banned like this for transfers that had made for players under 18. If they had broken the law for transfers that would solidify the senior squad then I agree but not this time.
Hazard may leave the club with more money but not with an exchange of players as it was discussed in the previous transfer window. It is not a concern but the club needed some players in many positions.

Fox Sports has reported that there is a potential swap deal involving Manchester United's Romelu Lukaku and Inter's Mauro Icardi and Juventus' Dybala. It is rumored that Machester is looking to swap them between either two Serie A stars which in my opinion is far from happening. The drop on Lukaku's value is way more significant compared to how important those two players are for their team. If they are looking for a real swap deal to happen they might need to start looking for another player.

Hey while I doubt Dybala will leave as Ronaldo would stay max for one year, then he’s the undisputed star at Juventus so I don’t see him leaving. In the case Mauro he’s just been stripped of his captaincy, and he will be more keen for a swap and come to Manchester United. As far the value is concerned we live in an inflated transfer market, so this deal could very well go ahead but question is will Mauro make it to the starting line up?.

Does Ronaldo have a contract of only one year? I didn't know that.
Overall, Dybala is very overrated he hasn't contributed a lot at Juventus compared to other players and I think that is he moves to another club he will be probably benched or unable to score. If he won't work harder he will not be a competitive player in the future.
