Real Madrid had a major setback with regards to their hopes of defending the league title after a 3-0 loss against Barcelona in the latest El Clasico. Another heavy defeat against their main rivals means that Real Madrid have fallen 14 points behind the table leaders. It looks highly unlikely that Madrid will be able to defend the league title that they won in style last season. However, manager Zinedine Zidane, choose to remain defiant even after this defeat, as he said that the title race was still far from over. Ironically, Barcelona manager Ernesto Valverde also chose to stay in a similar fashion.
Zidane has had to change a lot of formation and personnel due to players like Cristiano Ronaldo not being in top form this season. The French manager has had immense success since taking over from Rafa Benitez just under two years ago. He has been able to win one La Liga title and two Champions league medals during this period. Few managers have been able to post such success is such a span of time. Zidane is likely to be given more time beyond the end of this campaign, as he has just become the first manager in Champions League history to retain the title in successful campaigns.

Real Madrid midfielder Casemiro has emerged as a potential transfer target for Manchester United despite suggestions that he could extend his contract at the Bernabeu. The Brazil international has emerged as an influential player under manager Zinedine Zidane, and he has already made 12 starts for the European champions in all competitions.
According to Diario Gol, Jose Mourinho is eyeing an ambitious attempt to pursue the enforcer, who he sees as the perfect foil to Nemanja Matic and Paul Pogba in a three-man midfield. United have endured a difficult situation this term with the likes of Pogba, Marouane Fellaini and Michael Carrick out through injuries, and this has left them short in the centre of the park with just Matic and Ander Herrera to rely upon.
