Raul is leaving his role as head coach of Real Madrid's second team, Castilla, as he looks to take the next step in his career. The former striker has previously rejected former club Schalke, as they search for their new head coach. It has been rumoured that there has been contact between Leipzig and Raul.

However, the name that is gaining traction is St.Pauli head coach Alexander Blessin. kicker reports that Blessin and former Werder Bremen head coach Ole Werner are both candidates for the role as well.
Leipzig ares struggling to find a new permanent head coach as their two main candidates are Cesc Fabregas and Oliver Glasner, both have valid reasons not to leave their current clubs, especially as Leipzig failed to qualify for Europe. Fabregas is continuing to build a project at Como, while Glasner has qualified for the Europa League with Crystal Palace after winning the FA Cup.
This past season has proven a reality check for Leipzig, as without Champions League football, they are no longer as attractive destination as they first thought.

Tommy Fleetwood's Wife Clare Fleetwood Has Surprising Role in His Career
Tommy Fleetwood's Wife Clare Fleetwood Has Surprising Role in His Career originally appeared on Athlon Sports. As the Travelers Championship heads into its final round on Sunday, Tommy Fleetwood stands at the top of the leaderboard with a stunning 16-under-par. The 34-year-old Englishman carded a bogey-free 63 in the third round, including an eagle on the 13th. If he holds onto his three-shot lead, Fleetwood can claim his first career PGA Tour victory, a title that has eluded him despite 41 top-10 finishes. Advertisement What makes his journey unique is the woman by his side: his wife and manager, Clare Fleetwood. Married to Tommy Fleetwood since 2017, Clare has played a crucial role in both his personal and professional life. The two first met through Tommy's brother, Joe, when Clare was already working in sports management. Despite a 23-year age gap, their relationship blossomed after she became his manager in 2015. Tommy Fleetwood looks on during the second round of the U.S. Open. Charles LeClaire-Imagn Images 'As we ... sat there listening to different proposals, I'm like, 'I can do this,'' Clare, 57, shared on the Performance People podcast. ' But I just for some reason at the beginning thought I couldn't and I shouldn't. ... Then we gave it six months, and it worked, so we carried on.' Clare, a seasoned professional at Hambric Sports Management and vice president for European operations, initially considered stepping aside when their romance began. But after sitting through other management proposals, she realized, 'I can do this.' Tommy credits her with keeping him grounded, saying, 'She's very clever. ... She judges situations better than you do when you're playing.' The Fleetwoods share a son, Franklin, born in 2017, and Clare has two sons, Oscar and Mo, from a previous relationship. With Tommy's consistent performances and Clare's sharp guidance, the Fleetwood duo continues to chase that elusive PGA win. The Travelers Championship might finally be their moment.
