Real Madrid settles on Arsenal's Wenger, Pellegrini
Real Madrid president-elect Florentino Perez has whittled his coaching shortlist down to two names.
Perez's No2, Jorge Valdano, has spent the past month sounding out potential replacements for Juande Ramos, including Inter Milan coach Jose Mourinho, AC Milan's Carlo Ancelotti and Michael Laudrup.
However, now Valdano has the options down to two men - Arsenal boss Arsene Wenger and Villarreal coach Manuel Pellegrini.
Valdano hasn't completely given up on trying to prise Wenger away from the Gunners.
However, AS says he has also discovered that Pellegrini's contract carries a £2.5 million buyout clause and the Chilean is fast emerging as the favoured option.
Indeed, Valdano has already told Perez he regards Pellegrini as "the future Wenger".
