INSIDER: Real Madrid president Florentino shocked and insulted by Levy over Pochettino price

Real Madrid president Florentino Perez is shocked and insulted by Tottenham chairman Daniel Levy's response to his attempt to open talks for manager Mauricio Pochettino.

The Spurs boss is the man Florentino favours to replace Zinedine Zidane after his resignation last Thursday.

However, Okdiario's chief pundit Eduardo Inda, speaking on El Chiringuito, revealed Levy has already given Florentino his price for Pochettino to leave for Madrid.

Inda declared: "Mr. Levy has asked for the modest figure of €300 million for Pochettino. Florentino is a very educated person, but it is an insult.

"He could have asked for 30, 40 or 50 million."

Of other candidates, Inda added Juventus coach Max Allegri's chances have receded.

"I saw him four or five months ago, and now I see him with less possibilities.

"I think those who have most options are (Joachim) Low and (Liverpool boss Jurgen) Klopp. (Michael) Laudrup is also being considered with Guti a secondary choice."
