Mauricio Pochettino now just 3/1 to take over at Real Madrid – with Arsene Wenger also in the frame
Los Blancos are struggling to pick up results under new boss Julen Lopetegui - losing three and drawing in their last four outings
MAURICIO POCHETTINO is among the favourites in line to replace Julien Lopetegui as Real Madrid manager.
Los Blancos are in a dismal run of form, leaving former Arsenal boss Arsene Wenger also in the frame for the job.
Madrid's winless streak stretched to four matches on Saturday with defeat away to Alaves.
This is their third defeat in this poor run, leaving former Spain boss Lopetugui under huge pressure at the Bernabeu.
The bookies have Pochettino as second favourite at 3/1 to arrive as boss, behind Guti who is 2/1 in the market.
Wenger is 16/1 as he remains out of work since he left Arsenal last summer.
The former Gunners boss refused to rule out retirement as he continues to review his options.
The Frenchman also trails Antonio Conte and Laurent Blanc in the bookies' eye.
While Wenger is the same price as Juventus boss Massimiliano Allegri and Germany's national coach Joachim Lowe.
