Real Madrid's head coach Carlo Ancelotti shared his thoughts on the issue of players facing an overloaded schedule in the 2024/25 season.
ESPN quotes Ancelotti as saying:
Football needs to reflect because the aim is to try to play less games to have less injuries. If that leads to lowering salaries, the aim is for players to play less games so I don't think the players will have any problem to lower their wages if they play less.
Recently, Manchester City's midfielder Rodri suggested that players might consider striking due to the excessive number of matches.
As for the current La Liga season, Real Madrid has garnered 11 points after five rounds, placing them third in the standings. The team will face Espanyol at home on September 21, with kickoff scheduled for 22:00 Moscow time.
Ancelotti had previously criticized fans for their treatment of Vinicius.
