Real Madrid have identified Brazil boss Tite as the man to succeed Zinedine Zidane at the Bernabeu, according to AS.

Los Blancos are on the hunt for Zidane’s successor after he stepped down as Whites boss following an historic run of three consecutive Champions League trophies.

Former Internacional, Al Wahda and Corinthians head coach Tite of course has his hands full at the moment with the World Cup about to kick-off, but he has delayed his decision over a new contract until after the tournament.

That has potentially given Madrid the chance to talk to his representatives immediately after the summer showpiece in Russia.

It has also been suggested that Tite’s good relationship with Neymar could help the Whites in their long-time pursuit of the Paris Saint-Germain star.
