Florentino Perez calls Real Madrid press conference

Perez calls Real Madrid press conference

Real Madrid president Florentino Perez has called a press conference on Monday evening, with Rafael Benitez's future as head coach believed to be the subject of interest.

Benitez only took charge of the Spanish giants in the summer and had made an unbeaten start to his tenure entering this month.

Los Blancos were beaten 3-2 at Sevilla before the international break, however, before losing 4-0 at home to Barcelona in Saturday's El Clasico.

Benitez's position at the helm is reportedly unsecure and speculation surrounding his future will now increase after Perez called for a unscheduled press conference on Monday night.

Real Madrid currently sit third in the La Liga table, six points behind the leaders Barcelona, but the Spanish giants have qualified for the knockout stage of the Champions League with two games to spare.
