As Carlo Ancelotti’s situation at Real Madrid grows increasingly tense, reports suggest a conversation took place between the coach and Florentino Pérez following the heavy defeat against AC Milan last Tuesday. The 65-year-old manager explained the lack of playing time for young talents Arda Güler and Endrick.
Real Madrid is currently going through a tough period. Ahead of their next match at the Santiago Bernabéu against Osasuna, the mood within the club is low after two significant losses. The performances of key players like Kylian Mbappé and Aurélien Tchouaméni have been disappointing, but Ancelotti has stuck to his approach without making substantial changes. Despite promising players like Arda Güler, who has been shining both in training and with his national team, and Endrick, who has scored two goals this season, the coach has given them limited minutes on the pitch.
According to Marca, supported by Defensa Central, Carlo Ancelotti and Florentino Pérez recently discussed the team’s struggles. One of the key topics was the use of Arda Güler and Endrick, which has been a hot topic among fans. Reports suggest that the Italian coach explained to the president that while both players are talented, they still lack the experience needed for high-stakes matches.
Ancelotti believes that both Güler and Endrick, who sometimes show impulsiveness in their play, have yet to prove they are ready for crucial games. In particular, the young Turkish midfielder, whose popularity among fans is growing, has been criticized for not contributing enough defensively. Ancelotti reportedly feels that with the offensive presence of Kylian Mbappé and Vinicius Junior, the team cannot afford another attack-minded player like Güler without compromising defensive stability.
Expected Strategy Shift
While Ancelotti’s explanations have been accepted by the Real Madrid management, the club is now expecting some changes. Given that the absence of Güler and Endrick in recent matches hasn’t improved the team’s form, the club is hoping to see them given more playing time. There have been growing calls for Güler and Endrick to be more involved, especially in upcoming matches against more accessible opponents.
This Saturday, against Osasuna and before the international break, there might be an opportunity for Güler to showcase his abilities on the field. Endrick is also likely to feature, giving him a chance to prove his worth in the attack. The club’s leadership, led by Florentino Pérez, is eager to see quick adjustments from the coaching staff, with real impacts on the pitch.
