Could Sergio Scariolo be the next coach of Real Madrid? There has been a lot of discussion about it in Spain, with some people having no doubt that he will be appointed. This is despite the title just won by Chus Mateo.
Can you win and end an era? It seems so. By beating Valencia in the final, Mateo won his sixth title in his time at Real Madrid, having played in ten finals. He won 83.5% of the competitions he managed as head coach.
His list of victories includes two ACBs, two Super Cups, a Copa del Rey and, most notably, the 2023 EuroLeague. However, this may not be enough to keep his place on the Real Madrid bench. Rumours in Spain have been mounting for some time. After winning the title, Mateo commented as follows: “I see no other option for me but to stay. What happens next depends on the club. I am happy to be at the best club in the world”.
Last night, various news outlets reported with certainty that he would be replaced by Sergio Scariolo, who was approached by the Miami Heat in early June for an assistant coaching role. Remember that the Spanish coach won a title with the Toronto Raptors on the other side of the ocean.
According to this morning’s AS: It will also depend on Florentino Pérez, the president, if Chus Mateo (56) will honour the final year of his contract after winning the Scudetto and concluding a challenging season that began poorly due to significant issues in squad composition. Or, as various sources suggest, if a change is on the horizon.
