Mauricio Pochettino is being linked with Real Madrid.

Le 10 Sport says Real Madrid are keen to appoint the former Tottenham boss as their new manager.

Pochettino is 'looking for his next project' and has been heavily linked with the Newcastle job, should the Saudi-led takeover go through.

But Real Madrid president Florentino Perez would consider sacking Zinedine Zidane this summer and replacing him with Pochettino.

Real Madrid are thought to be happy with Zidane but given Pochettino is on the market, Perez is keeping the Argentine at the back of his mind if Zidane doesn't deliver a trophy this term.
