Pressure piles up at Bernabeu, fans want Lopetugui sack

Real Madrid has failed to win in the last five games following their home defeat to Levante on Saturday in an early kick-off.

The Real Madrid fans want coach Julen Lopetugi to be sacked and replaced with former Juventus and Chelsea manager Antonio Conte in the recent opinion poll conducted by Football Espana in Madrid.

Aside from the winless run, Madrid has also made an unwanted history having gone the longest without a goal in their 116-year history.

Lopetegui who sacrificed taking Spain to the World Cup in 2018 for Real Madrid after a tremendous run of form in the qualifying series made the La Furia Roja one of the favourite for the World Cup in Russia

1,070 Blancos fans were asked whether they would prefer the Spaniard to remain or for Conte to come in, and only 27% wanted the former while 73% opted for Conte to be Real Madrid

next manager.

A former Italy midfielder, Conte led Juventus to three Scudetti and the Azzurri to the Euro 2016 quarter-finals, before being crowned a Premier League champion with the Blues.
