Santiago Solari says he's not sure if he'll be appointed as Real Madrid boss full-time.

According to La Liga rules, a club can only appoint an interim manager for two weeks, after that he must either be appointed permanent coach or replaced. 

This means that Solari must be confirmed by today.

Whether he gets the full-time job or not, Solari says he's happy with what he's done so far, with Real winning all of their matches since Julen Lopetegui's departure.
