Mauricio Pochettino is Florentino Perez's choice but Mourinho and Raul are also options

After Real Madrid's second home debut to FC Barcelona in a week, it's reopened the debate as to whether Santiago Solari is the man to take the team forward.

The names at the top of a potential list are Löw, Pochettino and Allegri. All three are currently contracted elsewhere. Pochettino is Florentino Perez's favourite but Tottenham won't make it easy.

The Argentine coach has never hidden his desire to one day coach Real Madrid. Manchester United are also keeping tabs on his situation.

There are more names on that list though. According to "El Chiringuito de Jugones" Jose Mourinho is a genuine option. The Portuguese coach would be willing to return should the season end badly for Madrid. In his current pundit role he revealed he's desperate to get back in the dugout.

Another wildcard option is Raul Gonzalez. He's recently taken over the Juvenil B side but could be fast-tracked into the big job.
