Carlo Ancelotti spoke about his relationship with the Real Madrid players in an interview with Italian newspaper La Gazzetta dello Sport. The coach also stated that Pepe wanted to leave the Spanish capital club.
The dynamic of the team: “The relationship with the players is what’s most important, it matters a lot more than the one with the president. If there is no good feeling with the guys, you are a dead man. Someone calls it friendship, I simply call it respect, although I like to laugh and joke with them. The intelligent people know when it’s time to get serious. Whoever defines me as ‘too soft’ angers me, because it is not true.”
Relationship with big players: “My history helps me from the start at a club. There is always great respect for what I have done, but then I am tested with the daily relationship with the group. I have to be consistent from the beginning to the end.”
How have you recovered Pepe at Real Madrid?: “I have not used any strategy. He asked to leave because in Spain they considered him bad and dirty. I told him that he was going to stay, that I counted on him. We were not disappointed, like [Cristiano] Ronaldo never disappoints us. Zidane was the player that entertained me the most in training, but Cristiano makes me have fun in matches, as he always scores.”
Italian national team: “Yes, I would like to manage it one day. But first I must overcome the desire to coach every day. Italy reach a World Cup final every 12 years and they win one every 24. So, everything's ready for 2030.”
