Petit doesn't expect Wenger to get Madrid job: He has a reputation for losing in Spain

The former Arsenal manager has been mooted as a possible successor to Zinedine Zidane at the Bernabeu, while a role at PSG has also been mentioned

Emmanuel Petit believes former Arsenal boss Arsene Wenger is unlikely to end up at Real Madrid, pointing to a “reputation for losing” in Spain that may work against him.

The Frenchman finds himself without a job after bringing a 22-year spell with the Gunners to a close.

He has been mooted as a possible successor to Zinedine Zidane at the Santiago Bernabeu, with the Blancos in the market for a new manager following the shock resignation of a man who guided them to three successive Champions League crowns.
