Florentino Pérez was bitterly angry with what he saw in El Clásico. Real Madrid fell back into the same mistakes as always and were comprehensively defeated by Barça, who scored four goals at Santiago Bernabéu. The situation is clear: two transfers are needed and Ancelotti's figure has been very, very damaged.
Defensa Central has discovered that Florentino is seriously considering the possibility of reinforcing the squad in the winter transfer market. No request is said to be forthcoming from Ancelotti, but several names that are on Real Madrid's agenda and who are not expected to arrive, in principle, until next season will be considered.
The first name on the table is Trent Alexander-Arnold . Carvajal's injury has left the right-back position seriously affected and, although Lucas is trying hard, he is not at the level required. A Galactico transfer is needed on that side and the main objective is the Englishman, whose contract expires on June 30.
Florentino Pérez also wants to strengthen the centre of defense. David Alaba was expected to be available, but he seems far from returning. Another defender is needed and this transfer would be assessed based on the results that can be achieved until January. A name that is very popular is Laporte .
Ancelotti, singled out by Florentino
It won't be the result of a tantrum. The 0-4 scoreline hasn't gone down well in the Bernabéu and the shots are aimed at Carlo Ancelotti.
The members of the Bernabéu's elite have taken the blow to the table from Barça in the classic very badly. The Catalans leave the Bernabéu with a 6-point advantage and everyone is wondering why.
And there's general agreement. Ancelotti is the centre of attention. He hasn't been able to successfully replace Ancelotti and he is also not knowing how to get the most out of Mbappé.
Real Madrid were in no hurry, although the change was clear. But now, with Manchester City and Bayern interested in the Tolosarra coach, a decision must be made.
Xabi Alonso will be Real Madrid's next manager on July 1. Florentino Pérez is very grateful to Carlo Ancelotti and will bid him farewell with all honors. But the change has already been decided.
Florentino Pérez is clear that several things need to change and the next few weeks could be key to achieving this.
