Analysis
This market shows extreme illiquidity with zero 24-hour volume despite $189.8k open interest, paired with a massive 29¢ bid-ask spread that inflates the Yes-side implied yield to 799.6%—a red flag suggesting the 15¢ price may not reflect genuine market consensus. The sharp 4¢ price decline over seven days combined with a moderate Cliff Risk Index of 6 suggests some recent selling pressure, though the 259-day timeframe to expiry provides substantial runway for sentiment shifts as Real Madrid's managerial situation evolves.
Resolution rules
This market will resolve according to the person who is appointed as the next permanent manager of Real Madrid. If no permanent manager is appointed by December 31, 2026, 11:59 PM ET, the market will resolve to "Other." Appointments of 'interim,' 'caretaker,' or other non-permanent managers will not impact this market's resolution. An announcement of a new permanent manager's appointment before this market's close date will immediately resolve this market to the corresponding option, regardless of when the announced appointment goes into effect. The primary resolution source for this market will be official information from Real Madrid; however, a consensus of credible reporting will also be used.
