Santiago Solari Appointed Real Madrid Head Coach Until 2021

[SirBalon]

Apparently Real Madrid have handed in the documents for Solari to become the permanent coach at least until the end of the season after the club have found it difficult to convince anyone to come in now.

There is a RFEF rule that an interim coach can only exercise his duties for the maximum of 16 days which are nearly up and either the club appoint Solari with an contract or the need to find someone else.

Santiago Solari: Real Madrid set to appoint Argentine as permanent manager

3 minutes ago | European Football

Real Madrid are set to appoint Santiago Solari as the club's permanent manager.

The Spanish Football Association says it has received Solari's contract from the La Liga club, although no there has not yet been an announcement from Real.

Solari took over on 29 October on an interim basis after the sacking of former Spain manager Julen Lopetgui.

The 42-year-old has since led Real to four wins in four games - the best start of any manager in the club's history.

Real had to give Solari - or someone else - the job as Spanish rules prevent an interim coach from staying in charge for longer than 14 days.

Solari's wins in his spell in charge have been against Melilla in the Copa del Rey, Viktoria Plzen in the Champions League, and Real Valladolid and Celta Vigo in La Liga.

In those games, Real have scored 15 goals and conceded two goals.

The club were ninth when he assumed control and they are now sixth, four points adrift of leaders Barcelona.

The fact these players seem to turn it on and off depending on if they like the manager is a little concerning given the majority of those players seem to have peaked.

Well Solari has broken the record for the best start any Real Madrid coach has had in the entire history of the club. That's a feat in itself until you look at the teams that were participants for this to happen.  Only Celta was the real test and that game was very iffy indeed.
