Real Madrid are set to sack head coach Julen Lopetegui after a third straight defeat, according to Sky sources.
The Spaniard took over from Zinedine Zidane in June and has won just five of his 12 games in charge.
Lopetegui was sacked as manager of Spain two days before the start of the World Cup when news broke of his appointment at the Bernabeu, with former player Fernando Hierro parachuted in for the national side.
Lopetegui's tenure at Real Madrid began with a 4-2 defeat in the Spanish Super Cup to city rivals Atletico Madrid and the European champions are fifth in the La Liga table, four points behind leaders Barcelona.
They suffered a 1-0 Champions League defeat away to CSKA Moscow before the international break and returned to action with a 2-1 home defeat to Levante on Saturday, setting a new club record goalscoring drought of 481 minutes in the process.
Real Madrid are currently on a five-game winless run in all competitions.
A Champions League visit of Viktoria Plzen is up next for the club before they head to Barcelona next Sunday for the first El Clasico of the season.

Madrid problem is not the coach, but the team owner and shareholders of the team. why you will sell your best scorer and don't buy replacement, but buy goalkeeper why your have goalkeeper that give your 3 champion league in three seasons is still performing, Messi said that Madrid made a great mistake by selling champion league all time heighter goal scorer christino Ronaldo
Of course it's right

I personally donβt think the coach is to be blamed. When an icon of the stature of Ronaldo leaves it will definitely leave a big void . The team is not playing that bad . They are creating chances but thereβs no Ronaldo to finish them and defensively they have struggled. He needs to be given some time in order to prove his credentials.

Maybe he is a good manager, takes some time to adjust but in short time the way of Madrid and players are playing was blocked by the manager and the Heart of Madrid like Modric,Kros,Isco,Vasquez,Ascensio and Ramos are lost and not confident.

Lopetegui's problem is his selection of players and not having a world class striker. Ronaldo left for only 100mill even for a 33 year old Perez should have got at least 150mill for him because of the market right now and bring in a world class striker. Perez is to blame because Pepe one of their best defenders Perez didn't replace him either and now it's Cristiano that Perez didn't replace.

real Madrid has no respect for anybody all what they after is trophy and there is no confidence in the team again. Best Coach and player has gone and now they av to start as a new promoted team cos no team is afraid of them anymore. Even though Perez hire Gaudiola it all the same.
