Guti Announces His Decision, Reveals if He Can Replace Ancelotti at Real Madrid

Before the Arsenal-Real Madrid match, Guti spoke with 'El Periódico' about the current situation of the white team. Carlo Ancelotti's squad doesn't arrive at the Champions clash in their best form after the defeat against Valencia. In fact, the Italian coach has been heavily criticized in recent hours.

"I'm waiting for a good opportunity, but at the same time family is very important to me and being a coach is a 24-hour job every day. If it's a good and interesting project, I'd like to coach. If not, I'm fine at home", Guti replied regarding his future.

"The range abroad is much wider. In Spain, it's complicated for a former player unless you do something good in one or two consecutive seasons. For the former player, it's not easy to coach in Spain because in the end almost everyone has an opinion of you from the past", he commented.

Is There a Possibility of Coaching Real Madrid?

Additionally, Guti was asked about the possibility of managing Real Madrid in the future after his experience at La Fábrica.

"Yes, obviously yes. I think there are talents coming from the academy that Real Madrid holds in high regard and my stage is closed. I mean, it's being in the first team of Real Madrid or not being there and that's already very complicated", Guti exclaimed.

Meanwhile, Guti analyzed the current moment of Real Madrid. "They're a bit inconsistent, they have phases of very good soccer, winning many matches, and others where they lose points easily. In the end, the League is very competitive, the top three play many matches and it's difficult to always be at a high level", he explained.

Guti Continues to Defend Carlo Ancelotti

Guti was also questioned about Carlo Ancelotti's role on the Real Madrid bench. The former player of the white team believes that the Italian is not being treated fairly.

"No, because Madrid comes from a great season and in this one they're still fighting for all the titles. The grades in such important clubs as Madrid or Barcelona or Atlético are given at the end. Let's wait for the season to end, he deserves all the respect for his career and for last year, which was extraordinary", he commented.

Finally, Guti made his bet on the titles he believes Real Madrid will win from now until the end of the season. "As a Madridist, I hope all of them. But I don't know, it's a very demanding season and being able to be fighting for everything at this moment already seems like an achievement to me", he concluded.
