Pressure Mounts on Xabi Amid LaLiga Resumption

With LaLiga set to resume, Xabi faces significant scrutiny following a lackluster initial six months at the helm of Real Madrid.

Raul’s Perspective on Madrid’s Current Situation

Raul shared his thoughts with AS, emphasizing that Real Madrid remains among the top eight teams in the Champions League. He acknowledged the team has lost some ground in the league since the recent Clásico clash but insists that the real contest for titles truly begins in April and concludes in May.

Key Points from Raul’s Statement:

• Patience Required: “You have to be patient; we have a new coach with fresh ideas and an immensely competitive roster.”
• Formidable Rivals: “Barcelona is performing well, and Atlético is also a strong contender, as they’ve made smart signings.”

Raul expressed confidence in his team’s ability, stating, “Both Barcelona and Atlético will challenge us to give our best in pursuit of the League and other national titles. I believe in our squad, and I remain hopeful that successful outcomes will come our way.”
