The rag burns between Alvaro Arbeloa and Raul Asencio. This week, the Spanish press actually affirmed that the Madrid coach had not at all appreciated certain attitudes of the player in the locker room. Especially when the defender complained after learning that he was not going to start against Manchester City. And that’s why he doesn’t play anymore.
Real Madrid players would also have taken a dim view of their teammate’s behavior. And the last episode of this soap opera may not help things. Questioned by a young fan who asked him why he wasn’t playing after training, Asencio simply replied: “That, you have to ask Arbeloa”. A sequence filmed by El Chiringuito de Jugones which is already causing a lot of talk in Spain… On his X account, the player tried to put out the fire: “the coach is the one who commands, he puts and removes the players. I have the maximum respect for him and all my teammates.
