Santiago Solari Dismisses Real Madrid Resignation Talk After Ajax UCL Exit

Real Madrid manager Santiago Solari has dismissed the prospect of resigning from his position following his side's humiliation at the hands of Ajax in the UEFA Champions League on Tuesday.

Los Blancos were in a strong position to qualify in the second leg of their last-16 tie, having battled to a 2-1 win in Amsterdam. However, they were given the runaround at the Santiago Bernabeu by a vibrant Ajax outfit, losing 4-1 on the night and 5-3 on aggregate.

Afterwards, Solari was asked about his position but said he wouldn't be walking away, per Pete Jenson of the Daily Mail.
