Over the past few months, I’ve been closely following every game and event involving Real Madrid, remaining relatively quiet despite my concerns. However, as a devoted fan for 52 years, it’s time to raise my voice. Football is more than a pastime for me; it’s a passion, and Real Madrid is at the heart of it. Here are my thoughts:

1. A-Team Coach

I believe it’s time for Real Madrid to either relinquish the contract of coach Carlo Ancelotti or part ways with him graciously at the end of the season. While Ancelotti is a legendary figure in our club’s history and will forever be respected, his tenure may need to conclude for the sake of the team’s future. We must allow him to pursue other opportunities while preserving his legacy at Real Madrid.

2. Castilla Coach

The same applies to Castilla coach, Mr. Raúl. Although Raúl is a legendary player for Real Madrid, his coaching has not lived up to expectations. Castilla is producing players who lack the market value and impact we need—comparable to third-tier products. In contrast, clubs like Barcelona are selling academy-developed players for €100 million, while we are selling players for a merely €2-5 million. Castilla is currently producing Chinese products that is just producing for the sake of production only. Castilla should be a source of world-class talent, and we need a coach capable of delivering that.

3. New Coaching Leadership

Real Madrid needs fresh coaching leadership, both for the A-Team and Castilla. This change is necessary to reinvigorate our strategies and to align with the club’s long-term ambitions. Spanish coaches are the leaders in the world and they are rolling some of the clubs from scratches to riches. But we are morons not to even make any plan to develop our own faculties.

4. Governance Concerns

It’s essential to prevent any future scenarios where an individual brings their entire family into the coaching staff. If someone desires such control, they must also be responsible for bringing full board members, millions of fans to the stadium regularly, a top-tier team, and at least €1 billion in annual business revenues. Real Madrid is not a personal project—it’s a global institution.

5. Injuries and Prevention

Real Madrid’s medical team should take a more proactive role in preventing injuries, teaching players how to manage their physical condition, as players like Toni Kroos and Cristiano Ronaldo have done. Our current coach has failed to establish a proper ecosystem for injury prevention, which has been a recurring problem. I have been advocating for better injury management for over a year, but significant progress has yet to be seen.

6. Co-Shared Business Plan

I respectfully question whether Real Madrid understands the importance of a unified business plan that integrates all aspects of the club—A-Team, Castilla, and others. At the end of each season, all divisions should collaborate to create a business plan that contributes to the development of key talent for the first team, nurturing youth players, and ensuring mutually profitable operations of each segment of business.

7. Connection with the Community

Real Madrid must reconnect with the local community, just as it once did. Large events like the Taylor Swift concert should either be hosted at alternative venues or organized in newly designated spaces, so they don’t interfere with the club’s core activities. The club should focus on initiatives that mutually benefit both the team and the surrounding community. We cannot live without our local community.

8. Strengthening the Defense with Local Talent

I have always believed in developing our defense from within Spain. Players like David Alaba should either have their contracts bought out or kindly move on with our respect. We need to build a strong Spanish defense that can also contribute to Spain’s national team, whether in the World Cup, European Championships, or other major tournaments. What currently is happening is totally a disgusting phenomenon that we will soon lose our footage in the national team.

One example is Nacho, a product of Real Madrid’s youth system. His first love has always been Real Madrid, and that passion shows in his loyalty and performance. First love is the truest form of love, and Nacho exemplifies that dedication. I’m confident he will return to the club in a different role in the future because he is a man of unwavering loyalty.

In conclusion, if my points seem unclear, I kindly request that you review my earlier articles, including:

· Dumping the Defense?

· Experience, Experiment, and Expectations

It is time to address these pressing concerns and steer Real Madrid towards a brighter, more sustainable future.
