These last few hours have been very difficult in Madrid. Saturday evening, Barça inflicted a real football lesson on the club from the Spanish capital, powerless against the attacks of the gang of Lamine Yamal and Pedri. Throughout the day on Sunday, Madrid fans and media were responsible for naming the culprits. If the name of Kylian Mbappé was the one that came up the most in articles and discussions, that of Carlo Ancelotti was not far away…
Outclassed by Hansi Flick, the Italian did not find the solutions to hurt the Catalans. And since the start of the season already, his team has given the impression of not having a real guideline, of playing without a game plan, depending only on the brilliance of its most talented players. And according to information from the Spanish media, it is increasingly contested internally.
The replacement already found?
Relevo thus explains to us that Carlo Ancelotti is in a delicate position. He should not a priori be dismissed from his functions during the season, and Florentino Pérez considers him a legend of the club. But internally, other voices are not so admiring of the former PSG. Beyond the tactical side, his management of young people is not always appreciated, just like his way of working on a daily basis. The Spanish media even explains that there is annoyance among certain players, even though until now, the locker room had always been fully supportive of him.
For his part, Sport goes even further. The newspaper explains to us that Florentino Pérez is already working on the arrival of a coach for next summer, and that the future of Carletto in Madrid is therefore sealed. Xabi Alonso, coach of Bayer Leverkusen and former player of the Casa Blancais the management’s favorite to take control of the team for the 2025/2026 season. The ex-midfielder reportedly has a clause that would allow him to leave Leverkusen freely next summer. To be continued…
