Zapping World Eleven EXCLUDED: Édouard Mendy’s “Little Brother” interview!
Qualified for the semi-finals of the Champions League at the expense of Chelsea last Tuesday, Real Madrid could complete an ideal week if they succeed on the lawn of Seville, their runner-up in La Liga.
On the eve of this perilous trip to Andalusia, Carlo Ancelotti appeared at a press conference, mentioning in particular a contract extension for Luka Modric, or criticism of the game of Merengue. Here are the Italian technician’s best statements, relayed by the Madrid Xtra account:
The state of the group after Chelsea
“The players are fine after the Chelsea game, we had time to recover well.”
Luka Modric
” Modrić will finish his career here at Real Madrid, it’s the club’s and Luka’s idea. He won’t have any problems renewing. (…) Modrić is taking great care of him, he hasn’t had major injuries in his career and that helps him a lot…. I coached a football legend, Maldini, who won the Champions League at the age of 40. I have to compare Luka Modrić to a player, it would be with him: for the quality, for the seriousness, for the way he understands football… They are legends.”
Eden Hazard
“Hazard is fine. He removed the plate from his ankle because he had pain and infections. Now he has time to recover.”
Criticisms of Real Madrid’s game
“Antonio Cassano’s comments? We all know Cassano. I have nothing to say. (…) I don’t care if people say that Real Madrid are not playing well. We are competing for titles. We want to win.”
Vinicius Tobias
“He’s learning, he’s young and I think he has a lot of quality.”
Packages in Seville
“Mendy and Marcelo won’t play tomorrow. But their problems aren’t serious.”
Eder Militao
“Militao surprised me a lot, I didn’t know him well as a player. He’s a top-level player, very strong. He can improve in certain aspects like reading situations but he’s having an incredible season . “
La Liga title race
“La Liga is not over. The whole world is waiting for us to drop points, but we will be competitive until the end.”
Eduardo Camavinga
“Camavinga brings a lot of energy to the midfield and we’ve seen what he does. He was essential against PSG and Chelsea.”
