  • Real Madrid have announced Spain boss Julen Lopetegui will be their new head coach after the World Cup.

    The La Liga giants have announced that the former Real Madrid Castilla coach will now take over the senior squad.

    The move comes as a surprise, with Lopetegui not featuring prominently among the host of managers linked with the role since the departure of Zinedine Zidane days after Madrid’s 3-1 victory over Liverpool in the Champions League final.

    Lopetegui, who has been in charge of the national team for the past two years, has agreed a three-year contract at the Bernabeu.
