Real Madrid hero Hugo Sanchez has again told president Florentino Perez he's ready to coach when needed.

Despite Santiago Solari signing a deal to 2021 yesterday, Mexican legend Sanchez declared he could handle the job if given the chance.

"Zinedine Zidane, who was in the Castilla without experience, was given the opportunity, he was only Carlo Ancelotti's assistant, the same case is now with Santiago Solari, in which case, I hope that when they need a coach, they do not forget about me; I'm eager to contribute to the cause," he said.

"The only thing I can say is that he (Florentino) knows me, he knows my ability, I hope that one day he will give me the opportunity as he gave it to Zidane or now he is giving it to Santiago Solari, the only thing I need from him is his confidence because I will not disappoint him, neither him nor Real Madrid."
