Earlier this week, it was reported that Raul Gonzalez was considered as a candidate for the vacant coaching position at Schalke 04. The fallen giants made a tough start to their 2nd Bundesliga season, and they thought to a familiar face as being his savior.
After leaving Real Madrid, Raul played for Schalke for two years at the end of his playing career. He could do it again as a manager, but second Reliefit is unlikely that he will accept the role because his wish is to remain as manager of Castilla.
Two Schalke officials traveled to Madrid earlier in the week to meet Raul, and presented him with their pitch. The legend of Los Blancos took the time to entertain the presentation, but his idea is to reject the advances of his former club.
Raul believes himself as a future manager of Real Madridalthough he is unlikely to be Carlo Ancelotti's successor because Xabi Alonso is designed for that. However, it is interesting to see if this situation induces him to stay, as his chances of being promoted are probably higher.
