Zinedine Zidane will be reappointed as Real Madrid manager months after leaving the Santiago Bernabeu.
Naija News understands that the Frenchman will replace Santiago Solari on Monday.
Former Real midfielder Zidane, 46, left in May after leading the club to a third straight Champions League trophy. 
Real are currently third in La Liga, 12 points behind leaders Barcelona.
Solari is set to be relieved of his duty after a 4-1 win over Real Valladolid on Sunday – which followed a shock Champions League exit to Ajax.
That 4-1 home defeat and 5-3 aggregate loss to the Dutch side was the final straw for Real president Florentino Perez.
According to sources in Spain, Real’s board of directors will meet with Solari to dismiss the Argentine and rehire Zidane.
Former president Ramon Calderon told Sky Sports News last week that Mourinho was the first choice to take over and was approached by the club, but Zidane looks set to return.
Zidane was first appointed Real Madrid boss in January 2016 after a spell in charge of the B team, and he became the first coach to win the Champions League in three straight seasons.
