Real Madrid’s loss to Lille has ignited significant discussion, and while Carlo Ancelotti returned from France feeling let down, Florentino Perez remains confident in him. This defeat ended a 36-match unbeaten run and showcased one of Ancelotti’s team’s poorest performances in recent times. Lille outperformed Real Madrid, displaying superior intensity and commitment throughout the match, putting Ancelotti under scrutiny.
In the aftermath of the loss, speculation about Ancelotti’s future emerged, fueled by a disappointing start to the season, according to the Spanish newspaper Marca. Nevertheless, Perez continues to back Ancelotti, showing his strong commitment to the coach amid the swirling rumors.
“Ancelotti is our coach, and we will win many titles with him this season,” is the prevailing sentiment at the Santiago Bernabéu. Despite the reappearance of names like Zidane and Xabi Alonso in the conversation, Perez stands firm. The season is still in its early stages, leaving ample time to reverse course.
Florentino has no plans to replace Ancelotti, recognizing his achievements. Although the team has had a rocky start, Real Madrid is keeping its composure. However, improvements in performance and positive results are necessary, as Ancelotti, with Perez’s backing, needs to find effective solutions for the team’s success.
