2025 is progressing, and with it, Ancelotti's future at Real Madrid remains a mystery. Constantly criticized this season for some results, the coach is in a complicated position. This has led several fans to call for his departure, a request with which Valdano shared his opinion.

"If Ancelotti stays, I will be the happiest person in the world," were the words of the Argentine. Considered a legend of the club, Valdano made his stance on the coach clear. Aware of all the titles Ancelotti has achieved, the former striker would be satisfied if he stays at the club.

"He is a coach who does a lot of good for soccer and does a lot of good for Real Madrid," added Valdano. Through these last words, Valdano demonstrated that, despite the mistakes of this season, his confidence in Ancelotti hasn't changed.

Valdano's stance

Having been part of Real Madrid for three seasons, Valdano is still remembered by Madrid fans. Scoring 56 goals, the Argentine was key during several games and the achievement of titles. Knowing perfectly well the pressure of being part of Real Madrid, the Argentine understands Carlo Ancelotti's situation.

Due to this, despite the constant criticism, Valdano was clear about his desire to see more of the Italian. This shows that, contrary to all the rumors about Ancelotti, the coach is not in danger of leaving the team.

With a contract until 2026, Carlo Ancelotti might end up fulfilling this before making a decision about his future. However, coaches like Xabi Alonso have been emerging to replace the Italian for the most desired bench in the world.
