All the details inside Santiago Solari's new contract at Real Madrid
If Madrid beat Celta, the coach will be handed a new contract which will see him take charge until the 2021 season
Santiago Solari is playing for more than just three points against Celta Vigo. If Real Madrid are able to pick up another victory, the coach will go from being the interim man in charge to being handed a permanent three-year deal.
According to 'El Pais', Florentino Perez has given the green light to Solari extending his role as first team coach.
At the moment, Solari is the lowest paid coach in LaLiga, but his new contract would see him earn a salary more reflective of the team he represents. He'll be handed a three-year contract and earn around €4m per season.
Celta Vigo will represent a tough task and as such, no one at the Bernabeu is overlooking today's game. This is the last test Solari needs to pass in order to be handed the role on a full-time basis. Can he call off Madrid's search for another head coach?
