Raul to coach Real Madrid in due course

Real Madrid director general Jorge Valdano has said striker Raul Gonzalez or former midfielder Michel could coach the Spanish club in due course.

"Real Madrid has never copied another club's model, but it is not inconceivable that someday a player with Raul or Michel's characteristics could give us an option as coach," Valdano said on Monday.

Valdano further pointed out that it was premature to speak of the Blancos bringing a home-grown tactician up through the ranks as Barcelona has done with its current manager Pep Guardiola.

Raul has played for Spanish club Real Madrid his entire career and is the club's all-time top goal scorer. The 33-year-old Spanish soccer ace is a three-time winner of the UEFA Champions League and has long been the competition's all-time leading goal scorer.

Michel, a Real Madrid legend, is currently serving as Getafe's boss this season. His side is vying for a Europa League spot.
