This is the article linked to save giving the Daily Fail the clicks on their site:-




Everton manager Roberto Martinez will be the surprise name on Barcelona’s shortlist should their manager, Gerardo Martino, leave at the end of the season.

Powerbrokers at the Nou Camp are paying close attention to how the 40-year-old Spaniard is doing at Goodison Park, having won the FA Cup with Wigan last season.

With Barcelona trailing Real Madrid by four points before Sunday's El Clasico, some within the club feel they need a new manager to herald in a new era, though Martino has a strong ally in fellow Argentine Lionel Messi.

On the radar: Everton manager Roberto Martinez is attracting interest from powerbrokers at the Nou Camp

Under pressure: Gerardo Martino's Barcelona side are currently four points behind Real Madrid





Both clubs have been handed boosts ahead of the match with the news Gerard Pique and Karim Benzema should be available for selection.

Defender Pique missed Barca's 7-0 win over Osasuna as a precaution to rest his right ankle but returned to training on Monday.

However, Carles Puyol, who is set to leave the Nou Camp at the end of the season, will miss what would have been his final clash against Real with a knee injury.

Preparations: Barcelona defender Gerard Pique (centre) takes part in a training session ahead of El Clasico

The future's orange: Real Madrid train at the Valdebebas training ground ahead of hosting Barcelona





Benzema looks set to return to the Los Blancos line-up having missed his side's 3-1 victory over Schalke in the Champions League on Tuesday.

The former Lyon striker returned to Carlo Ancelotti's squad on Saturday after injuring himself during Madrid's 1-0 victory away at Malaga.

La Liga leaders Real go into Sunday's match four points clear of third-placed Barcelona while local rivals Atletico trail by three points in second.

Cup winner: Martinez's exploits with Wigan have not gone unnoticed in his homeland

Unlikely, but him going there and taking Sewerz with him would be top comedy indeed.
