The management of Real Madrid is considering sacking head coach Carlo Ancelotti if the team fails to earn points in their upcoming match against Athletic Bilbao in the 32nd round of the Spanish league, as reported by Relevo.
The game is scheduled for April 20.
According to the source, the club's management sees the meeting with Athletic as a kind of test for the Italian coach. If Ancelotti is dismissed before the end of the current season, an interim head coach will be appointed.
Earlier reports suggested that Ancelotti's chances of keeping his job decreased after Real Madrid were eliminated from the Champions League in the quarterfinals. Xabi Alonso, current head coach of Bayer Leverkusen, is mentioned as a potential successor to the Italian coach.
The match between Real Madrid and Athletic is set to take place at the Santiago Bernabeu Stadium in Madrid, with kickoff scheduled for 22:00 GMT+3.
