Solari’s anointment as sacked Julen Lopetegui’s permanent successor comes after wins in his first four matches.
And with 15 goals scored and only two conceded the 42-year-old Argentinian has established the best ever start for a Real manager.
After thrashing Melilla in the Copa del Rey, they won 5-0 away to Viktoria Plzen in the Champions League, between victories over Real Valladolid and Celta Vigo in La Liga.
