Carlo Ancelotti has given his first impromptu press conference of the season and he did it from the United States. The Italian spoke to the media before his first training session at UCLA with Real Madrid 2023/2024. He greeted the journalists and chatted with them.
One of the topics to be discussed by Carlo was the signings already signed: “We are very happy. What has come improves the quality of the squad. Fran García improves the left side, where we had problems last season. With Joselu we won in the air in the rival area, where we also suffered. Güler is very talented. He is very young and I think the fans are going to enjoy him. Bellingham is a great interior with something we were missing: arrival. The squad has improved. I want to try something new. If it doesn’t work out, we have the old system, which gave us so much success”.
About the one who is not there, Mbappé, Ancelotti does not talk about players who are not his: “I am not talking about players who are not in Madrid. He only talked about the high-quality players we have, like Brahim. I didn’t talk about him before, and he’s come back very well. And we have Modric, Vinicius, Rodrygo…”.
Of course, regarding his future, presumably as the coach of Brazil, he was even more forceful: “Come on, we got rid of this on the first day. We closed it. I’m the coach of Real Madrid, I’m not going to talk about this matter anymore. I have a contract until June 20, 2024. I have a contract until June 30. I’m in no hurry. We’ll see what happens. I think the squad has improved despite having lost a legend like Karim Benzema, whom we wish the best “.
The real Madrid will debut in preseason on Monday 24 at four in the morning, Spanish time, against AC Milan.
