Carlo Ancelotti, the manager of Real Madrid, is looking forward to the future and is aiming for another UEFA Champions League final.
Head coach Carlo Ancelotti of Real Madrid is optimistic about the future of his team as they aim to secure a UEFA Champions League title to add to their recent La Liga triumph. The Spanish giants clinched their 36th top-flight title by defeating Cadiz 3-0, marking their eighth trophy since Ancelotti’s return to the club in 2021.
Despite their recent success, Ancelotti is not complacent and believes there is more to come from his talented squad. In an exclusive interview with TNT Sports ahead of their Champions League semi-final second leg against Bayern Munich, the manager expressed his satisfaction with winning the La Liga title, acknowledging the challenges they faced along the way.
Ancelotti stated, “We have had a lot of problems and we were able to solve these problems with a fantastic commitment by the players. We are really happy for this. It is the best way to prepare well for the next game. I think we have a young squad and think that the future will be really good for us.”
The first leg of the semi-final ended in a 2-2 draw, with Harry Kane and Vinicius Jr. finding the back of the net for Real Madrid. Ancelotti believes his team learned valuable lessons from that match and acknowledges the strength of Bayern Munich, particularly their dangerous striker.
If Real Madrid advances to the final, it will put them in contention for a record-extending 15th European Cup title. Their most recent triumph came a couple of years ago when they defeated Liverpool 1-0 in Paris. Ancelotti, with four Champions League titles to his name, already holds the record for the most victories as a manager in the competition.
The prospect of playing the final at Wembley Stadium adds an extra layer of excitement, especially with England international Jude Bellingham in Real Madrid’s squad. Ancelotti expressed his desire to be in another final and to experience the atmosphere at Wembley.
In conclusion, Carlo Ancelotti is confident in the potential of his Real Madrid team and is determined to secure further success in the Champions League. With their recent La Liga triumph and a talented squad, Ancelotti believes the future is bright for Los Blancos.
