Why would Ancelotti choose to leave? Real Madrid can offer you high pay, but won't build the team according to your requirements Compared to other clubs, Real Madrid does not hesitate to spend on coaching staff salaries. However, when it comes to recruitment, Real Madrid has its own plan, which does not change due to changes in the coaching staff. Despite winning the Champions League twice under Ancelotti's leadership, his requests for new signings have not been supported. To date, his desired reinforcements for the front line and midfield have not materialized, with only one Arnold included in Real Madrid's recruitment plan. Although Ancelotti has been able to lead the team to victory, he has had to rely on his own tactics and strategies. Over time, he feels that he has not been respected, and it is not surprising that he wants to leave. Ancelotti looks forward to new challenges, aiming to become the world's best coach As a rare coach who has achieved success in all five major leagues,…

This sentence is not at all exaggerated; it is a true reflection of Real Madrid's season. From the combination of Bellingham, Vinicius, Mbappe, and Rodrygo at the beginning of the season; To the difficulty of integrating Mbappe; A wave of defensive injuries; Bale and Bellingham being overworked and experimented in other positions; Poor performance by Joaquin, etc., Real Madrid's public opinion has been in a trough. Coach Ancelotti is under great pressure. Problems such as the balance of the front three, lack of a central core in midfield, a wave of defensive injuries without reinforcements, and insufficient playing time for substitute youngsters like Juler and Endrick. Any one of these problems could blow up on him. For example, Bellingham and Bale, who are frequently restricted and dissatisfied with their positional shifts, can cause trouble if they make a fuss. Fortunately, both…

In the vast expanse of the football world, where countless stars shine brightly, Real Madrid stands as a renowned powerhouse that is always at the center of attention. Any small move made by the club is enough to cause a stir in the media. On December 15th, Beijing time, Spanish media outlet Relevo dropped a bombshell that sent shockwaves through the football community - following a draw with Vallecano, the Real Madrid hierarchy issued an ultimatum to their decorated coach, Carlo Ancelotti. Real Madrid correspondent Jorge C Picon confirmed the news and pointed out that this is not the first time Ancelotti has faced a crisis in his position as head coach this season. Rumors of a coaching change began to circulate after defeats against AC Milan and Liverpool in the Champions League. Now, the patience of the club's management seems to be wearing thin. While they have decided to give Ancelotti another chance, they have already identified Santi Solari as a potential replacement, waiting for the right moment. The season is nearing its halfway point, and on the surface, Real Madrid's performance appears to be satisfactory. After 17 rounds in La Liga, Real Madrid has accumulated 37 points, ranking third in the league table, only one point behind leaders Barcelona with a game in hand, and level on points with second-placed Atletico Madrid. In the Champions League, they have secured 9 points after 6 matches, temporarily occupying second place in the group. After defeating Atalanta, they managed to stabilize their situation after being on the brink of elimination. Despite…

Real Madrid finds itself in a precarious situation following a crushing defeat in the Super Cup, where they were outplayed by Barcelona, who staged an impressive comeback from two goals down to secure a victory. This defeat not only highlighted the shortcomings of Real Madrid's coach, Carlo Ancelotti, but also subjected his coaching abilities to unprecedented scrutiny. The fallout from this loss extended beyond the pitch, with issues such as dressing room discord, tactical rigidity, and mounting pressure from the management leading to the resignation of the decorated coach. As the world speculated on the future of the "Galactic Battleship," a familiar name emerged as a potential savior – Zinedine Zidane's return was seen as the only viable solution to break the deadlock. However, the question remained: could simply changing the coach be enough to extricate Real Madrid from its current predicament? Zidane's significance to Real Madrid fans cannot be overstated. His iconic No. 14 jersey and the spectacular goal he scored in the 2002 Champions League final are etched in the memories of fans. As a coach, he led Real Madrid to three consecutive Champions League titles from 2016 to 2018, solidifying the club's reputation as the "King of Europe." His directness, decisiveness, and strong control over the dressing room earned him widespread admiration. Even amidst tactical controversies, Zidane consistently demonstrated an ability to turn the tide in critical moments. The term "stabilizing force" aptly describes Zidane, as he provided Real Madrid with emotional stability and a consistent match rhythm. It is no surprise that after Ancelotti's departure, Zidane's…

Within a single day, Real Madrid suffered a double blow from their old rivals! Barcelona defeated Real Madrid 5-2, causing the "Galactic Battleship" to lose the Spanish Super Cup title. Meanwhile, Atletico Madrid won 1-0 against Osasuna, quietly achieving an 8-game winning streak, surpassing Real Madrid in the league table to top La Liga and secure the mid-season championship. Barcelona now seems to have a very aggressive spirit, always getting fired up when playing against Real Madrid. Including this match, Barcelona has scored more than 5 goals against Real Madrid four times this century, while Real Madrid has not done so even once. In fact, whether it's losing the Spanish Super Cup or dropping to the top of the league, these are not crucial as the season is still long. The key point is that they inadvertently provided assistance to their neighbors in their time of need. This is simply unbearable! Barcelona's lineup has height, strength, and speed in the frontcourt, with a combination of flanks and center, which Real Madrid's defense simply cannot withstand. The comprehensive defeat in this El Clásico match should be attributed to coach Carlo Ancelotti! According to the feeling of Real Madrid players, there is a possibility that Ancelotti could be sacked at any moment! In the past, Real Madrid's defensive lineup included Kroos, Modric, Carvajal, and Alaba, who could still rely on Nacho even when injured. However, the current awkward situation in the frontcourt is that the forwards generally cannot hold their positions centrally, with too many missing elements. Only Mbappé can capitalize on…

In the final of the 2024-25 season Spanish Super Cup, Real Madrid faced off against Barcelona. As the defending champions, Real Madrid had triumphed over Barcelona with a 4:1 victory the previous year and now boasted an even stronger squad, led by new summer signing Kylian Mbappe, alongside Vinicius, Bellingham, and Rodrygo, forming a formidable quartet. On the Barcelona side, the frontline was still led by Lewandowski, Rafinha, and Ilaix Moriba, with Olmo and Paul Victor, who were successfully registered on a temporary basis, waiting on the bench. Barcelona's recent form has been poor, and they have been experiencing a tumultuous period since the start of the new year, making Real Madrid the more favored team. However, it should not be forgotten that just over two months ago in the La Liga match, Real Madrid suffered a humiliating 0:4 defeat at home to Barcelona under the guidance of coach Flick, with both teams fielding similar squads to the current ones. The match started with a dream opening for Real Madrid, as their usual counter-attack saw Vinicius and Mbappe connect to score the first goal within just five minutes. However, this turned out to be the beginning of a nightmare! From the 22nd to the 48th minute, Barcelona scored five consecutive goals, leaving Real Madrid stunned once again. In the 56th minute, goalkeeper Szczesny was sent off, leaving Barcelona with one less player. Despite having an extra man, Real Madrid could only avoid a more devastating defeat. Lacking spirit, Real Madrid ultimately suffered a crushing 2:5 defeat and missed out on…

Although Real Madrid showed signs of getting back on track in a short period of the previous season, a crushing defeat in a strong dialogue proved that the team is still far from returning to its former peak state. Currently, if Real Madrid wants to achieve something at the end of the season, it must plug several obvious "holes" in the lineup through recruitment. At the same time, some of the team's underperforming main players are also facing the outcome of being expelled. From the overall performance of the team, the defense has become the key weakness that hinders further progress. Since last season, Ancelotti has been facing the dilemma of "a good cook without rice." However, as the head of the team, Florentino has always been very cautious about defensive recruitment, and Real Madrid has not signed any top-level players in the defense in several consecutive transfer windows. This directly led to Ancelotti having to rely on a makeshift defense to support when Alaba, Militao, Carvajal, and others were out for a long time due to injuries. In addition to the disorganized lineup, the "cliff-like decline" in the form of two main players is also a key factor in the team's poor defensive efficiency. In the right-back position, after losing Carvajal, Ancelotti only had Vazquez left. Since he transitioned from a winger to a full-back, Vazquez's advantage was originally on the offensive end, and defense was not his forte. Moreover, with age, Vazquez's physical fitness and ability to engage in physical confrontations have declined significantly, which further magnified his…
