Zinedine Zidane has reportedly been awarded a four-match ultimatum to improve his Real Madrid side following a disappointing Champions League outing against Shakhtar Donetsk.
Real Madrid had fallen 2-0 on Tuesday night to the Ukrainian side to occupy the third position in Group B.
The development meant their qualification to the round of 16 would be determined by the outcome of their last game.
Thus, if Real Madrid should fail to get a win in their last game in their group, the Spanish champions will be thrown into the Europa League.
Meanwhile, UK Sun revealed that the World Cup winner now has four games to know his fate at the Santiago Bernabeu.
Also in the domestic league, Real Madrid have been putting up an unimpressive show as they are sitting fourth on the League table and seven points behind leaders Real Sociedad.
After the defeat against Donetsk, Zinedine Zidane explained that he will not resign from his position with Los Blancos. “I am not going to resign, not at all.
“We have always had delicate moments. It is true that it is a bad streak in terms of results, but we must continue. “It is a difficult moment but I am convinced that we are going to bring out our character.”
