Present at a press conference this Thursday, Carlo Ancelotti took the opportunity to take stock of the mercato of the Merengues. The opportunity, also, for the Italian technician to come back to the Rubiales affair which has set Spain on fire in the last few hours. As a reminder, the president of the federation has been at the heart of the controversy since the end of the World Cup and his forced kiss to Jenni Hermoso.
“It’s a touchy subject, but it’s behavior that I obviously didn’t appreciate at all. This was not the behavior of a Federation president. I don’t think a person’s behavior affects me. I have very clear ideas about how I should behave, I’m fully aware of that because I’m the coach of Real Madrid. I stick to what I have to do”said the Madrid coach before responding to a possible ousting of Luis Rubiales: “I stick to what I said, I don’t know if he will resign. I hope they (members of the Assembly) will make the right decision”. The message got through!
