Meanwhile, Legit.ng had earlier reported that Real Madrid are reportedly considering making former Inter Milan boss Antonio Conte their next manager.
Los Blancos became coachless after Zinedine Zidane walked out on them this week, making it the second time the Frenchman has abandoned his contract with the Spanish League.
First was after winning his third straight Champions League title in 2018 and then this May following his side's failure to win any trophy at the end of the 2020-21 season.
Legit.ng also reported that After just one League season in charge, Italian giants Juventus have announced the sacking of Andrea Pirlo as their coach with the Old Lady expected to name a replacement as soon as possible.
Andrea Pirlo was a surprise candidate to replace Maurizio Sarri at Juventus last summer as the Old Lady chiefs decided to give their former player the chance in coaching.
Andrea Pirlo did not impress the club's chiefs as Juventus failed to retain the League title and they also failed to win the Champions League.
