After the clash with Arsenal, Ancelotti sobs at one Madrid player, saying, “I’m Not Just Furious At Him But So Disappointed Also – If Care Is Not Taken, He Might Be Sold in the Transfer Window to Come.”
In his press conference following Real Madrid’s thrilling Champions League match against Arsenal, manager Carlo Ancelotti did not mince words. Although the outcome alarmed supporters, the Italian tactician’s scathing remarks about one of his own players were the main attraction.
Ancelotti made a rare public statement in which he was both angry and deeply disappointed with a Madrid player who had a terrible 2/10 rating from a number of major media sources for his subpar performance.
> Ancelotti stated plainly, “I’m not only angry at him, but I’m also so disappointed.” “He could be sold during the upcoming transfer window if caution is not exercised.”
Sources close to the club have clearly suggested that the experienced coach was referring to Ferland Mendy, who had a dreadful game against Arsenal’s explosive attack, even if he did not specifically name the player in his initial statement.
A Disaster-Resilient Defensive Class
Arsenal’s strikers frequently attacked Mendy, while Bukayo Saka took advantage of the left wing during the game. The Frenchman was personally involved in one of the goals given up, struggled to keep up, and misread other plays.
The normally composed Ancelotti seems to have lost his temper.
> “Real Madrid is here. At this level—not in a quarterfinal of the Champions League—performances like that are unacceptable,” he continued.
An Apprehension Before Summer
Ancelotti’s remarks might be more than simply frustration; they might also be a public warning, especially since the summer transfer market is quickly approaching and Real Madrid has already been connected to defensive reinforcements.
> “One mistake is not the problem. It has to do with desire, focus, and attitude. It’s a major issue when that’s absent,” the manager said.
What Comes Next?
Now that the pressure is on, everyone will be watching to see how the player reacts in the upcoming encounter, if given the opportunity. If there is one thing Ancelotti has made clear, it is that nobody is safe from scrutiny when wearing the white shirt, and the Bernabéu crowd is demanding.
The player’s future with Real Madrid may change significantly as a result of this.
