Real Madrid coach Carlo Ancelotti has given his opinion on Xavi Hernandez’s departure to Barcelona. The latter announced his departure at the end of the season, which Ancelotti said he “understood”.

Xavi said in a press conference after the defeat against Villarreal that the job at Barcelona was cruel and unpleasant. He reiterated on Tuesday that Barcelona had a problem with job demands. Carlo Ancelotti was questioned about the cruelty of his work.

“I just want to say one thing and I don’t want comparisons. We (the coaches) have a fantastic job, with pressure, which is normal. And I respect everyone, their words and their thoughts. Whether it’s Xavi or anyone else.”

“I understand (his decision),” he said. Ancelotti was also asked if he ever felt like Real Madrid had a problem with the demands of his job, which the Italian dismissed. “As I said, I respect his decisions and his thoughts. That’s all, what I don’t want is comparisons.”
