Carlo Ancelotti is far from La Liga pitches, but the former Real Madrid coach knows Casa Blanca perfectly. And if José Mourinho seems to be the most likely candidate to take over the reins of the Spanish capital in recent days, the Italian admitted that if the Portuguese returned to the Merengue club, he would be very happy. In an interview given to The Athletiche was also transparent towards the Special One. “He can do a great job, as he has always done at every club he has been at. If he returns to Real Madrid, I will be very happy for him. He can do a fantastic job” said the Brazil coach.
Then, he insisted on the losses which caused earthquakes in Madrid. “The team lost some really important players: Casemiro, Kroos, Modric, Benzema, Nacho. The atmosphere in the team is important, and comes from these players, who have more character, more personality and more leadership. Real Madrid need time to rebuild that atmosphere in the team, which has given them a lot of success. This is not just a technical quality issue. To succeed, you also need to find a good balance”he added.
