Atletico Madrid have sent out feelers for available coaches as Abel Resino battles to turn around the club's worst start to a season in nine years.

Enrique Cerezo, the Atletico president, declared this week that it would be "virtually impossible" to replace Resino.

However, former Real Madrid and Getafe coach Bernd Schuster is being linked with the job, along with Luciano Spalletti, who recently left Roma.
