Ancelotti: The Situation at Real Madrid Is Improving
Real Madrid head coach Carlo Ancelotti shared his thoughts ahead of tonight’s La Liga clash with Rayo Vallecano, scheduled to kick off at 21:00 CET.
"It’s going to be a tough match, especially at this point in the season. Rayo always plays with great intensity at home, and it’s never easy against them. However, we believe we can deliver a strong performance. The team has recovered well, and the players had a day to rest, so we’re prepared and determined to secure all three points," Ancelotti said.
The Italian manager also reflected on Real Madrid’s ongoing challenges: "I’m doing my best to guide the team. I think we’ve been managing well despite the difficulties. We’re still competing in all tournaments, even though injuries have been a setback. The situation is improving—players are coming back, and we’re eagerly awaiting David Alaba’s return. He’s very close to being ready."
The match against Rayo Vallecano could be a crucial step for Real Madrid as they aim to maintain their momentum in La Liga.
