Real Madrid The option to sit on the Bernabu bench is postponed again
Ctornado months later Mauricio Pochettino is once again the owner of a bench, in this case the PSG, club and leaders he knows perfectly. It has been made to wait, but the presence of the Parisian team in the final of the Champions League, delayed the dismissal of Tuchel and the arrival of the Argentine to Princes Park.
He PSG is the first big for Pochettino, but he was not the first to approach and knock on the door of the ex of the Tottenham. He has always declared himself an admirer of Real Madrid, one of those greats who at some point have asked about the possibility of taking over his bench, but the train never seems to stop at the indicated station.
The new head of Neymar, Mbapp, Keylor Navas and company has not had a problem in recognizing that one of his sports dreams is to direct Real Madrid, that which seems to be impossible to fulfill. Circumstances of all kinds have prevented it, but its main ‘enemy’ has always been the long shadow of Zinedine Zidane.
The dream is still present, but now everything is parked. The challenge of PSG leaves everything else in the background. Manchester United, Barcelona, Mnaco and Real Madrid have been some of the teams that at some point have thought about the former Spanish.
In his day, for Old Trafford they preferred the option of Mourinho first and then give continuity to Solskjaer. Barcelona approached the Argentine in the middle of the crisis and after the dismissal of Valverde and, later when they realized that Setin was not the solution. Pochettino I thanked it and until another. It was not in their plans. I expected another call, but not the one from the Barça club.
He Real Madrid approached with goodbye Zidane of the month of June 2018, but Daniel Levy, president of Tottenham and old acquaintance of Madrid, asked for a lot of money, an amount out of the market and all logic, and then fire him in 2019 and continue paying until signing with the PSG.
That was the first white train to pass through the Argentine’s front door and as a result of which Valdebebas is convinced that one day Pochettino will be a Real Madrid coach.
In the last days and coinciding with the bad moments of the Madrid team, his name sounded and sounded like a French relayBut that official call, the one that would have meant the fulfillment of a dream, did not come to pass. Many sent interest, but none had the white pin on their lapels.
That does not mean that they did not think of him, but the truth is that the phone did not ring, although that does not mean that it will not do so in the future to the satisfaction of Pochettino and his dream to fulfill. While he arrives, the Argentine will be an ally first (he faces the Barcelona in the last 16 of the Champions League) and enemy after.
