It sounds the most unlikely story since it was claimed that a London double-decker bus had been spotted on the moon, but Real Madrid apparently wants Sir Bobby Robson to take over as their manager, according to The Sun.
The paper reckons that Uncle Bobby, still revered in Spain following his stint in charge at Barcelona, has 'received a sensational SOS' from Madrid, reeling from a crisis-ridden start to the new season.
With President Florentino Perez apparently believing that Mariano Garcia Remon, the club's interim coach following Jose Camacho's resignation, doesn't have the necessary authority to restore order in the dressing room, Uncle Bobby has been identified 'as the man to steady Real until Perez can secure a long-term replacement.'
Yes, because he did such a good job keeping the Newcastle dressing-room in line.
Sven Goran Eriksson, Otmar Hitzfeld, Marcelo Bielsa and Vicente Del Bosque are said to top of Perez's wish-list. However, none of them currently are available, and so Perez has apparently decided that Uncle Bobby is the perfect man to fill in until the end of the season.
