After Real Madrid was eliminated from the Champions League by Arsenal in the quarterfinals on Wednesday, Italian football manager Carlo Ancelotti admitted that the team might think about hiring a new coach. The Italian manager watched as Arsenal advanced to the semi-finals with a 5-1 aggregate score after suffering a 2-1 home defeat.
According to reports, this was Real Madrid’s 12th loss of the current campaign, which stands in sharp contrast to the team’s two losses in the entire previous campaign. Ancelotti told reporters that he doesn’t care about the issue and doesn’t care if his contract with the team expires in ten days, a month, or a year.
There is no issue if the club decides to replace the coach this year or the following year when my contract expires,” Ancelotti told reporters. “I can only express my gratitude to the club on the day I go. “It might happen tomorrow.”
Former Liverpool manager Jurgen Klopp and Bayer Leverkusen coach Xabi Alonso, who was a member of Los Blancos, have been linked to Madrid. According to Ancelotti, his club is still vying for the Club World Cup, La Liga, and the Copa del Rey this summer. “The team gave it their all in terms of attitude, but we couldn’t pull it off,” Ancelotti remarked following Arsenal’s Champions League loss.
Although we were superior in terms of intensity, it was insufficient since Arsenal played excellent defense and we had trouble finding space.
