The Italian manager gave a press conference this Friday.

This weekend the European leagues will restart after the international break in October. The most important players of each club had a very demanding week, with long trips and international matches with their respective national teams, so they could only rest for a couple of days before focusing on the near future.

 

Real Madrid are one of the teams most affected by this, as they had 12 players called up to different national teams and some of them barely had two training sessions with the squad after their return to Spain. With this scenario, this Friday boss Carlo Ancelotti gave a press conference before the match against Sevilla, which will be on Saturday at the Sanchez-Pizjuan stadium.

There, the Italian coach revealed what his main concern is: "Sevilla will demand a lot from us, they have changed their coach and have a quality squad. It's going to be difficult, as always. I'm more worried that we have forgotten what we did before the international break. We haven't had time to work but I hope we get back to the same level".

He then spoke about how he saw the players in the last few days: "The team is fine, those who have returned are in good condition. Those from South America have recovered well and have trained well. Everyone is available, including Alaba. We have had a problem with Ceballos and he cannot be available. It's an important week and we think we're good to face it."

Then Ancelotti was asked about Arda Güler, who this summer arrived at Real Madrid from Fenerbahce and has not yet been able to play due to two injuries, one in the meniscus of the knee and another muscular. About him he said: "Güler is doing quite well. He lacks a little bit of condition, but he will have his time in two weeks. He is an offensive player and can play in all positions. He can be a playmaker like Bellingham, but also as a winger on the wing. He can play in many positions”.
