Sevilla coach Julen Lopetegui didn’t much enjoy losing 4-0 to Chelsea on Wednesday but there are still few coaches he would swap places with at the moment, and Zinedine Zidane is probably not one of them.
It was just over two years ago when Lopetegui was unceremoniously sacked by Real Madrid after just two months of the season. On Saturday he could send his opposite number Zinedine Zidane teetering towards the same fate.
Zidane has three massive games in the next week with league matches against Lopetegui’s Sevilla and Diego Simeone’s Atletico either side of the must win final Champions League group game with Borussia Monchengladbach.
