Ancelotti Announces, out of Respect, the Date of His Departure from Real Madrid: On the 25th...

The Italian coach has clarified that he won't talk about his future until May 25 when the season ends

Carlo Ancelotti has cleared up some doubts. In the press conference before the match against Celta, Real Madrid's coach made a key statement about his future:

"I have a lot of affection for my club, my players, and my fans. Out of respect for them, I will talk about my future on the 25th and not before."

The message is clear: there will be no more statements until then. A date marked in red: May 25.

On that day, the coach will speak to confirm what many already suspect. The end of an era.

The statement was brief but powerful. It could mark the beginning of his farewell to the white club.

Only Thinks About the Present

Ancelotti doesn't want distractions. Although everyone talks about his possible departure, he insists on focusing on the next match.

"We think about the present. We can fight for the League until the last second. We don't think about anything else," he stated calmly.

The coach acknowledged that the season has been very tough. Injuries have affected everything. Even so, the Italian doesn't give up.

He trusts in winning the five remaining matches and ending the season on a high note.

Asked about the atmosphere after losing the Copa final, Ancelotti admitted it was a blow: "I spoke with the president. There was a bad taste, but nothing to reproach the team."

He was also asked if he feels anxious about the end. His response was calm: "My feeling is to think about winning tomorrow. Then, prepare for the next one. And so on until the end."

A Farewell Without Drama

Ancelotti doesn't want controversies. Neither with the press nor with the club. Amid rumors that Xabi Alonso, Klopp, or Solari are being considered as replacements, he is clear:

"I have a fantastic relationship with the club. Many reports are not true."

When asked to imagine his farewell, he smiled and replied: "Whatever happens, it will be a fantastic farewell. There will be no fights. I will never argue with the club."

On the 25th, everything will be clear. Until then, Carlo will continue fighting for the League. But the goodbye already has a date.
