Embattled Real Madrid boss Julen Lopetegui has vowed to "fight" on at the club despite reports that he may be sacked before El Clasico.
Real have endured their worst start in La Liga since the 2001-02 season, and they face Viktoria Plzen and Barcelona in a pivotal week.
A winless run of five games has seen the club slip to seventh in La Liga, and they have already tasted defeat in Europe, losing 1-0 to CSKA Moscow.
Reports from various outlets, including Sky Sports, have claimed that Lopetegui could be sacked in the coming days, before they face Barca in the first Clasico of the season.
