Raul Gonzalez
Madrid native Raul retains iconic status for the Real Madrid fans after scoring 228 goals in 550 La Liga appearances as the focal point of the club’s attack from 1994 to 2010.
He tops the Real Madrid La Liga and all competitions appearance list and is third on the top scorer chart in behind Cristiano Ronaldo and Karim Benzema.
Following his retirement from playing, he was offered the Real Madrid Castilla (reserve) job in 2019 and has established a reputation for developing young talent in Valdebebas.
Insiders at the club have been impressed by Raul’s rise, and his links to the club’s past would be a strong factor, alongside a stellar playing reputation within the dressing room.
If Raul can replicate the instant player respect that fellow legend Zidane generated, he will be an option. But his lack of senior team experience is major drawback.

It has to be Xabi Alonso in my opinion. A true Madridsta that has already shown the world his capabilities at Bayern Leverkusen. Tactically astute and a very good manager overall. Would be interesting to see him manage Real Madrid after Ancelloti’s departure next summer.
