La Liga (Spanish League) Prediction Thread 2023/24

[QueenVera]

If indeed Lewandowski asks for a salary increase, it seems I agree with you that he will be sold to another club to make a profit rather than increasing his salary but it won't have a big impact on Barcelona.
I have previously heard that Lewandowski actually wanted to be sold by Barcelona but he refused when there was a big offer from a Saudi Arabian club so maybe Lewandowski received a bigger offer from a European club.
The question is quite difficult, which European club is willing to buy old players at high prices? It's a little impossible but it could happen unless he gives a very strong performance this season and releases him in the next transfer market to give confidence to other clubs to offer him a big salary even though he looks old.
But it quite difficult for Lewandowski to improve his performance because his old age prevents him from increasing his performance level because his physique is definitely very different.

Barcelona is financially off the radar at this point and Lewandowski asking for a pay rise will leave them with no other option than to offload him. Yes, he would have left earlier had he not turned down a huge offer from the SPL but what could be the cause? Him asking for a pay rise means there have been a green light from a club in Europe and yes it’s very possible because I feel he still has some sting in him and could help you get huge number of goals enough to make your team succeed.

 So  Barcelona would have to use him to his full potential then try to offload at the end of the season and make way for younger striker who still proves effective, cause with the way things are I don't think Lewandowski is still fit for the pressure in European football, despite the fact that he's experienced it's not enough to keep Barcelona going, they'll need a younger, stronger and talented young lad upfront to replace him sooner or later.

I really did not expected Ancelotti to have something that would keep him there for a long time. I honestly expected him to go to Brazil at the end of the season, the fact that he is staying until 2026 is a big deal.

This also means that he is going to be able to play with the team that he basically built, obviously most of the players there were there before him, but a lot of them did gained a lot of time when he was there, mainly the young players. Was Rodrygo good before him? Of course, but not played this much, and plenty of other midfielders too. All in all I am expecting them to do very well under his management, they have done great so far and I think it's quite expectable that they will do very well until 2026 with him too.

He definitely had the right considerations and his decision answered all the rumors about Xabi Alonso who would be his replacement at Real Madrid.
Being a coach for a club that he is used to coaching will certainly be more comfortable, especially since there is nothing bad happening at Real Madrid that makes Ancelotti have to work harder, and this season Real Madrid has the opportunity to win at least two titles if they continue to perform well. especially if they can get a sharp, pure striker.

xabi alonso is under contract with bayern leverkusen also still long until 2026, and of course because leverkusen's achievements are good it certainly won't be easy to let go. coincidentally carlo anceloti's achievements with real madrid are also good. so instead of spending large funds to find a new coach the decision to extend carlo anceloti's contract is quite good. and the contract is up to 2026 the same as xabi alonso. so if xabi alonso is good continue with leverkusen 2026 surely join real madrid too.

It seems real madrid is trying to get xabi enough time to develop himself in the leverkusen. The biggest challenge for xabi was to beat bayern munich and its domination in the league for more than a decade ago. This may also become the main consideration from perez to extend ancellotti's contract. Yet we shall not be blind with so various achievements by ancellotti in real madrid as well. He has been winning many trophies with madrid and ancellotti was one of best coach in the world this time.

Xabi potentially become the next coach for madrid but this is still remain a speculation since xabi can also be recruited by other club too. It totally depends on him whether he will stay or leave from leverkusen.
It reminds me with the story of madrid with zidane. If it would not be xabi and we have zidane that can be recruited back too. He is also much more professional compared to the xabi.

Never forget him.

Sticking with Real Madrid is a great choice for Ancelotti, imo. The guy is very familiar with the team, and since there haven't been any big changes at the club, it matches well. Real's goals for this season, though. Are they aiming for the Champions League and La Liga? Although that is a big goal, Ancelotti has the knowledge to make it happen. But I can't help but think they're missing a critical scorer. During the transfer window, if Real Madrid can get a dangerous forward, they could become totally unbeatable. One last push in the transfer market is all that matters.

I think Lewa already used his full potential at Bayern and at Barcelona he is just a shadow of is former self and I'm not saying this in a bad spot , this is just the plain truth. This also doesn't mean Lewa is not a great striker anymore but we can see that is has a certain age , we can see he lost his touch , we can see he lost his reflexes and also he seems tired.

Regarding his transfer , I cannot see any team from europa that would want him so my guess would be MLS or Saudi Arabia for him.

64 years old Italian legendary coach is now having 30 years experience of club coaching and this is his second tenure with Real Madrid which bring them back at the top and now having very good understanding of players and management this all give him good advantage, and he can keep things going like they are doing with new generation players are surely going to have good future under his coaching and he can do good work for the two years which will keep this club at the top in UEFA and La Liga as well.

With this extension now all rumours are dead which was moving around for his future as Brazil national team coach as they are looking for the same European which bring changes and positive results, but now they have to go for other options which can take time, but now nothing is going to have for them from Carlos Ancelotti who prefer to stay here in Europe instead of going to Brazil for another experiment.

Carlo Ancloti experienced so far is not just experience, because his experienced in coaching clubs can definitely achieve brilliant result. While coach Real Madrid sinces 2021, Real Madrid has wons several title with Carlo Ancloti, including the 2022/23 Spanish King Cup, UEFA Champions League 2021/22, UEFA super cup 2022, FIFA club world cup 2022, Spanish super cup 2022 and La Liga 2021/22. So I thinks Real Madrid is retaining this coach because Real Madrid still wants to achieve successed with this coach.

The rumor circulating about Carlo Ancloti have of course reached agreement and clarity, likewise the coaches linked to Real Madrid will of course not come true like Zinedin Zidane and Xabi Alonso. Now we can breathed a sigh of relief because the Real Madrid club is no longer worried about its fate because with Ancloti Real Madrid feel more confident.

Ancelotti was the right call, and they did something amazing by getting him, but that doesn't mean that they are doing something that would be terrible, it should be noted that we are going to end up with a lot of tough decision making when the contract ends. Ancelotti has given them something amazing, and they have done great with him and they will continue to do great at the same time, which is why it's obvious that we are talking about a great few more years.

However, they need to figure out what they want to do after that, it's not going to be all that easy for them to get a new manager as good as him when his contract is over. I was thinking maybe they would want to start looking for that next great manager soon, but they didn't want to risk anything.

True but it seems like that was a fake news or ancellotti has told brazil regarding his main intention. Im also feeling so happy after someone posted it above. It's caused by ancellotti was building the club from the bottom. It's very good to see that ancellotti will be saying for the next years.
Real Madrid is currently in the process of rebuilding the club to its former glory, reminiscent of the time when Los Galacticos existed. Under Ancelotti's guidance, the team is steadily and surely moving forward with the implementation of a new formation. This is also answering so many questions from BTT members about the future of ancellotti.
It seems that Madrid has been attempting to conceal this information, and the fact that an official announcement has now been made has come as quite a surprise to us. It seems like that ancellotti will strengthen its club. We are just entering the winter transfer season.
Im wondering who is striker targeting by real madrid? Real Madrid's lack of a quality striker is the reason why they are in dire need of a number 9 player.

Yes, Real Madrid still needs a number 9 player, because Joselu performance is not very satisfactory. On the other side, the current rumors are that Real Madrid will recruit Mbappe in this winter transfer window. Hopefully Real Madrid offer to Mbappe is true and not just a rumor, to sharpen the attack line Real Madrid must immediately recruit him. But Real Madrid plans are quite good, they have secured the services of talented wonderkid Endrick Felipe in the new season and that young man will play for Real Madrid at next.

If Real Madrid succeeds in strengthen their attack line with a suitable player to be positioned at the number nine to get a perfect striking force then definitely the balance of the team will be such that they will have a very formidable strength across Europe and every other team who will be facing them in any fixture thereafter will need an extra effort to win them.

The rumours about mbappe's deal currently still remains speculative because neither parties are yet to give a public stands on the present or current situation of the deal, this includes the fact that mbappe is yet to give a solid stand on his move to Madrid yet neither has Madrid made it known officially if they will still be continuing with the de or not. The impact of mbappe on Real Madrid as anticipated by everyone can't be overly emphasized as it's obvious and that's why the team did all they could at some point to getting the deal pull through.

[piebeyb]

Adding a new coach like Xabi Alonso would have required adjustment. Madrid doesnt need that risk now. Their play is good due to Ancelotti's strategies. Keeping him guarantees continuity, and Madrid can win those titles with his help. They need to stay focused and push, and Ancelotti is the best man to do that.

Yes, that's right, because it's not easy to adapt to a new coach and of course it will take a long time for Madrid to adapt to the game that the new coach wants with a new strategy too, that's a difficult thing and risks disrupting their consistency in the UCL and Laliga, that's why Madrid still needs Carlo Ancelotti to train them to win the UCL this season, which has been achieved with many challenges.

Entering the round of 16 in the UCL, of course the challenge has begun, that's why Madrid must be able to reach the final and win the title this season considering their failure last season because they were eliminated by Manchester City and of course last season's defeat has been an important lesson for Madrid to be able to show change. which is better this season of course with some new and better players. I am sure Ancelotti will bring Madrid back to win the UCL title this season. On the other hand, Xabi Alonso should also focus more on Leverkusen to win the Bundesliga title which has always been dominated by Munich and that is why it seems he will focus on Leverkusen.

I think Lewa already used his full potential at Bayern and at Barcelona he is just a shadow of is former self and I'm not saying this in a bad spot , this is just the plain truth. This also doesn't mean Lewa is not a great striker anymore but we can see that is has a certain age , we can see he lost his touch , we can see he lost his reflexes and also he seems tired.

Regarding his transfer , I cannot see any team from europa that would want him so my guess would be MLS or Saudi Arabia for him.

Based on my personal point of view, Lewandowski will still be heavily relied on by Barcelona or Xavi. why, yeah because after all Barcelona still needs his services as a center forward in their squad. at least, before they get an ideal replacement in the front line. in other words, Lewa will remain the main option, especially if he doesn't experience any problems, especially those related to injury. Lewandowski's presence is very crucial, especially this season. not only how he has to score goals as his job as a pure striker, but precisely because his stability will be very helpful for Barcelona's young players, like Gavi or Pedri who are often given instructions by Lewandowski when setting strategies, even though he is no longer young, in fact he has entered the age of 35. however, if Xavi is able to maximize his patterns, systems and strategies, Barcelona should now be a competitive team. unfortunately, because they experienced a storm of injuries, Barcelona was unable to appear consistently in every match. plus, Barcelona's defense line has really experienced a decline in performance unlike last season. however, we agree that the age factor cannot be avoided by any great player and Lewandowski is no exception. however, at least Lewan is still very useful for Barcelona. now the problem is with Xavi, how he has to find an effective formula for his squad when playing match after match. as for rumors of Lewandowski's departure, I actually haven't heard any news. it could be, because currently I don't really follow developments regarding rumors or gossip. but as far as I know, Lewandowski once made a statement that he wanted to end his career at Barcelona. whether Lewa will leave for another club or league, we'll see what the results will be.

As long as Lewandowski is still in a Barcelona uniform, he is a player who can contribute to the team, a role model for young players, and an extension of Xavi instructions on the field. I think Xavi doesn't have much choice, paying attention to the club financial situation is another consideration at the moment, so maximizing Lewandowski performance is an option even though it is not satisfactory, I agree the reason for his decline in performance is the age factor.

On the other hand, speculation about Lewandowski future is still full of question marks, I think retiring at Barcelona is a wise choice. However, if management is moved to push him to the SPL or MLS to help a club in financial crisis, then that is also a kindness from Lewandowski. I think SPL is the right choice for Lewandowski future career if he doesn't want to retire yet, because everyone will benefit equally if they choose to move there.

Based on rumors circulating, Arda Guller will make his first debut in January against Mallorca. Maybe this is the news we most want to hear from Madid because everyone can't wait to see the player brought in from Fenerbahce show his talent. Because after all, a young seed like Ada Guller must be able to make himself comfortable in the ranks of a big club in order to secure his future. Personally I wouldn't expect too much from his first debut, because it would be very difficult to adapt, especially since Madrid game is so classy that not all players are able to match it. At least Madrid fans can get what they have been waiting for.

[Belarge]

Real Madrid are in for only tougher title runs, not giving up but ready to take up their length to trophies levels. Real Madrid are good club and competitive, they are the best club currently in La Liga. They have the best competitive run and they're going for only good results. Carlo Ancelotti have players that ate hunger to play football, they don't joke with their roles on the pitch. A number 9 player doesn't play any significant role though they need good players, other players that play different roles delivered the club in crucial times. For instance, Jude Bellingham and is the major source when it comes to scoring goals for Real Madrid.

The number 9 jersey has not yet been filled in the squad and maybe Real Madrid is still keeping this jersey number for an attack that really has the same abilities as the previous wearer. Joselu is not projected for the long term because he was bought only to replace the striker who was vacant in the previous season's transfer window. Joselu's ability has not been able to adapt to the schemes and strategies implemented by Ancelotti because several opportunities he was given failed to be executed as the coach hoped.

Endrick Felipe is indeed the youngest player bought by Real Madrid and he will only be able to play next season. If Mbappe is successfully brought to Real Madrid, Los Blancos' front line duo will be even more terrifying. Let's just wait and see what steps Real Madrid will take in the future and hopefully Mbappe will be a priority purchase.

[shogun47]

Of course they would have had many options, but I am convinced that Real Madrid is very happy to have found a solution with Ancelotti and to now have him as their coach for a longer period of time. Whether he gets sacked in the meantime, nobody knows. He can't afford any bad times with the team, but that would be the same for any other coach. I believe that for the time being the combo consisting of Ancelotti + the team is the best that Real Madrid can currently have. If they want to target Xabi Alonso in the future, I think it is still best if Alonso can gather some more experience with a team like Leverkusen and go to Real Madrid one day with full confidence.

It looks like this is a great decision for all parties, Ancelotti is a great coach and his departure could create a problem for Real Madrid as finding a good coach for such a team is not so easy. I also heard that Ancelotti will continue to work with the Brazilian team, but now I see that Ancelotti has extended his contract with Real until 2026. This is probably the right decision, if it brings good results for the team and Ancelotti is comfortable working here, then why change anything.

I believe from now on it all depends on his success over the next few years. At some point I thought that Ancelotti wants to slowly pull out of the business because it is too stressful for him to have to be available 24/7 year round as a Real Madrid coach, but he seems to be in a great condition physically and mentally and he still seems to be enjoying the game. He is on fire sometimes despite his age and despite being this calm guy he usually is. But you can see that he wants more trophies especially in the Champions League. He could now have his final little era and let's see what his decision will be in 2026.

Àrda Guler returned from Injury since the last week's of November. Coach Carlo Ancellotti has delayed using him too quick in other to avoid losing him back to Injury.
Asides him returning would be the return of Camavinga, and also Vinicius Junior who have been confirmed training with the squad. Retuning this early would be great so they can prepare strong enough for the Champions League Competition.

They haven't been serious with the chase for a new striker, they shouldn't rely so much on  Joselu. They should make the chase of Kylian Mbappe their priority.

[asriloni]

I was assuming Vitor Roque was going to join by next summer just as Endrick will at Real Madrid. Roque is only 18 years old now. But he seems like a talented centre-forward for now. The number of goals he has scored so far is really impressive considering his young age. Barcelona signed him for only 40 million euros which could be a very profitable deal.

It is all up to Roque's adaptation level. If he does well with European football then Barcelona can benefit from his finishing skills and help him improve himself much more in the meantime.

I think signing victor Roque is a very good and profitable deal for Barcelona this season as  he's going to serve in a very sensitive position which was vital and very much needed for Barcelona so it was a good deal for Barcelona as they did had a fair deal considering their current financial state which has in a way limited some of the actions the te would want to take.

Lewandoski is no doubt becoming aged and not in the best form to future I'm Barcelona game sand deliver the desired results of him, because the factor of his constraints is such that he can really fight as it's from nature itself which makes it quiet peculiar in his case. So just like you rightly stated, in the mean time victor will not be playing but will be watching around well enough to observe and get used to Barcelona style and patterns of playing then as soon as he starts he would have already gotten used to his new team and would play well enough to fit in the team when he starts playing with them.

Lewandowski is a difficult topic for Barcelona right now as on the one hand I think they wish he could perform outstandingly for maybe one or two seasons more until they really have a world class striker to substitute him. On the other hand the ties are getting loser between the player and the club as there have also been first arguments between Xavi and him and I think if Lewandowski doesn't score a lot of goals in the next few weeks, these cracks in their relationship will only get deeper and everything will get worse. I don't think they have a bright future together.

Lewandowski will be stagnant. There will be no vast improvement to happen to him caused by he has reached his peak. Just got an update regarding his future in barcelona. Laporta and lewandowski's agent has agreed for his client will not be for sale, but the consequence if lewandowski must have agreed if his salary will remain the same. There was an agreement between him and the club to raise his salary every year, but since he had been making a new agreement with the club then lewandowski's salary will not be raising up.

So much news has been reporting this and the major problem is now between him vs xavi. Xavi was extremely disappointed and upset with his performance, as he felt that he was being lazy in his efforts to retrieve the ball. Lewandowski is just standing and did nothing in the game.
Lewandoski needs to be more cooperated with xavi caused by he was playing so badly. It's caused by the fact that when people were not even thinking if lewandoski's performance will be declining a lot like this time.

This is good news, especially for fans of Madrid and La Liga, hopefully this is not just passing news, meaning we again failed to see Arda Guler make his debut with Madrid. I even thought before that perhaps Arda Guler was Madrid worst signing, because the season was already half over and Guler had yet to make his debut due to injury.

In terms of age, Arda Guler still has the opportunity to continue to develop, and that is very easy to do because he joined the right team. We know that mediocre players will become even greater when playing in a lineup at Madrid, Guler could be the one we hope will be like that. Previously he had been included as a reserve player by Ancelotti, but the situation was not conducive to giving Guler playing time.

The match against Mallorca could be a good impression if Ancelotti gives him time, especially if Guler can score a goal on his first debut. But we will see what happens, who knows, Guler will just sit on the bench, and Ancelotti won't give him time to make his debut.

[LUCKMCFLY]

Carlo Ancelotti's choice is certain, and hopefully he will not regret what he did. Carlo Ancelotti is one of the best coaches that Real Madrid has ever had, and so far, Carlo Ancelotti has brought Real Madrid to victory in several competitions, so the manager of Real Madrid has made an offer to extend his contract because it seems that the Real Madrid team, when coached by Carlo Ancelotti, will provide very satisfactory value.

I believe Ancelotti knows the reason why he has decided to stay back instead of walking away even when he has all the opportunities to walk away with good stakes. But I feel like he understands the club so well that he wants to remain and work together with the management and players to build a robust strategy with the players.

Ancelotti has been delivering quite excellently to my own liking and if he has the best squad depth, I believe he can work better. Ancelotti performance have outweighed that of Xavi in the scheme of works and I can only say Kudos to him for the job well done.

The thing is that I believe that any player has Managed to Surpass Xavi , well with the exception of Ten Hag in the MU who for me are both on the same level, for now things at Barcelona are not going Well, these things can be very Detrimental so that your team can Perform as much as possible , but it is something that we cannot Speculate further because I know Sometimes what can happen in football can change, but with Respect to Xavi he is in a position that if good results are not given results because they will do without his services, so in this order of ideas I think it is the last opportunity he has to do it, this is what we must see , of course this is only what I have read in the articles, but the panomarano It's not at all encouraging for him, so I don't think there is any point of comparison with coaches who are successful like the Great Carleto Ancelotti, that's Why things in Europe with Football are becoming very Strong in terms of Football , because they are Only going the best to be in First place.

The League is one of the best in the world, for that reason it is now being Given so much importance because we are talking about Barcelona, one of the teams that can always make a Difference and help generate many more things, in this you can draw of Girona, which has given great surprises, which has in fact taken away Barcelona's Position from Competing against a Real Madrid where Basically things can be very Valuable for now, because Madrid takes the First place , then Girona , that is, Girona is taking the place of Barcelona , which I find very impressive, we as people who are always aware of the smallest things in the League can result in it being very Exciting , and that these types of things at least I really like them , They are very Entertaining and they keep us all in suspense, which I have always liked.

Real Madrid extends Carlo Ancelotti’s contract after Brazil’s interest in hiring him as coach

MADRID — Real Madrid has extended Carlo Ancelotti‘s contract until 2026, seemingly ending Brazil’s hopes of hiring him as the new national coach.

Ancelotti had been linked with a move to Brazil for months, with the president of the Brazilian Football Confederation publicly expressing his desire to hire the Italian.

But Ancelotti had said all along that he would like to remain at Madrid if the club wanted him. His current contract was to expire at the end of this season.

Lewandoski is no doubt becoming aged and not in the best form to future I'm Barcelona game sand deliver the desired results of him, because the factor of his constraints is such that he can really fight as it's from nature itself which makes it quiet peculiar in his case. So just like you rightly stated, in the mean time victor will not be playing but will be watching around well enough to observe and get used to Barcelona style and patterns of playing then as soon as he starts he would have already gotten used to his new team and would play well enough to fit in the team when he starts playing with them.

Lewandowski is a difficult topic for Barcelona right now as on the one hand I think they wish he could perform outstandingly for maybe one or two seasons more until they really have a world class striker to substitute him. On the other hand the ties are getting loser between the player and the club as there have also been first arguments between Xavi and him and I think if Lewandowski doesn't score a lot of goals in the next few weeks, these cracks in their relationship will only get deeper and everything will get worse. I don't think they have a bright future together.

Lewandowski will be stagnant. There will be no vast improvement to happen to him caused by he has reached his peak. Just got an update regarding his future in barcelona. Laporta and lewandowski's agent has agreed for his client will not be for sale, but the consequence if lewandowski must have agreed if his salary will remain the same. There was an agreement between him and the club to raise his salary every year, but since he had been making a new agreement with the club then lewandowski's salary will not be raising up.

So much news has been reporting this and the major problem is now between him vs xavi. Xavi was extremely disappointed and upset with his performance, as he felt that he was being lazy in his efforts to retrieve the ball. Lewandowski is just standing and did nothing in the game.
Lewandoski needs to be more cooperated with xavi caused by he was playing so badly. It's caused by the fact that when people were not even thinking if lewandoski's performance will be declining a lot like this time.

Well the truth is when we talk about a Lewa in a team like Barcelona, it wouldn't matter if he needs to do things better with the team, because basically Barcelona is a team because he has acted very badly and the fault is either Lewa's, it's Lewa's. Xavi himself because he has not been up to the task, Lewa's work is very different now, player like him knows how to kill himself when it is known that he can define a match at any moment, if If he enters into disagreement with a player and he is a very good and legendary player like him, things do not go well, things go in the wrong direction, I would say that it is all Barcelona's fault, That poor performance is entirely Xavi's , because the players they have are not bad, on the contrary they are very good.

I know that the frustrations of I think that Xavi has a tight grip at the moment, because things are not going his way and that is serious, in one of his most relevant teams in Spain and in the world they have stayed and have not given up The history that Barcelona has cannot lower its level because it is not well regarded by them, that is why they are paying a lot of attention to the fact that things can be done in any number of ways, this is delicate, because it is a team that always He has given a lot to talk about and if they lower their level now , the managers are not going to say Anything about Lewa but about Xavi.



Xavi’s prophecy about former Barcelona winger comes true – report

Not every player manages to find their place within FC Barcelona as they hope to do. The competitive nature of the club is what has driven it to become one of the grandest destinations in European football. However, certain decisions are difficult for Barcelona no matter how necessary they might seem.

Yes, Real Madrid still needs a number 9 player, because Joselu performance is not very satisfactory. On the other side, the current rumors are that Real Madrid will recruit Mbappe in this winter transfer window. Hopefully Real Madrid offer to Mbappe is true and not just a rumor, to sharpen the attack line Real Madrid must immediately recruit him. But Real Madrid plans are quite good, they have secured the services of talented wonderkid Endrick Felipe in the new season and that young man will play for Real Madrid at next.

The number 9 jersey has not yet been filled in the squad and maybe Real Madrid is still keeping this jersey number for an attack that really has the same abilities as the previous wearer. Joselu is not projected for the long term because he was bought only to replace the striker who was vacant in the previous season's transfer window. Joselu's ability has not been able to adapt to the schemes and strategies implemented by Ancelotti because several opportunities he was given failed to be executed as the coach hoped.

Endrick Felipe is indeed the youngest player bought by Real Madrid and he will only be able to play next season. If Mbappe is successfully brought to Real Madrid, Los Blancos' front line duo will be even more terrifying. Let's just wait and see what steps Real Madrid will take in the future and hopefully Mbappe will be a priority purchase.

The current situation is very confusing. On one hand, Real Madrid needs a number 9 but they are performing well without them. On other hand, despite these rumors, I don't think Real Madrid would sign Mbappe after he kind of betrayed Real Madrid a few years ago and signed a deal with PSG. Everyone was thinking that Real Madrid got him but he said otherwise. It makes everything confusing.

Real Madrid are doing well without a number 9 right now. Joselu is doing kind of good but he is not a world class player after all. The rumors are not strong either about Mbappe coming to Real Madrid. Endrick Felipe won't be coming this season as far as I know. Things are getting very interesting and I will be watching every moment of it.

I believe from now on it all depends on his success over the next few years. At some point I thought that Ancelotti wants to slowly pull out of the business because it is too stressful for him to have to be available 24/7 year round as a Real Madrid coach, but he seems to be in a great condition physically and mentally and he still seems to be enjoying the game. He is on fire sometimes despite his age and despite being this calm guy he usually is. But you can see that he wants more trophies especially in the Champions League. He could now have his final little era and let's see what his decision will be in 2026.

He still seems strong enough to handle the business and that's why he agreed to signing the renewal of his contract till 2025 if he has got challenge with it I'm sure he wouldn't have opted for the contract and even the management of Real Madrid wouldn't have agreed to the extension of his contract aswell.

I was thinking he would have gone to the Brazilian team coach them over a period of time and probably end his career there with a retirement but then he has still got the will to be at Real Madrid and that's why he will still agree to staying in Madrid as against going to Brazil. He has still got love for the Madrid team and I'm optimistic he will help the team further scale even greater heights in this season and subsequent seasons to come, so I'm not expecting any less from him and his boys this time having accepted to stay back at Madrid rather than move to Brazil.
