The Daily Merengue It is a place where you can feel free to practice everything related to football. Don’t be alarmed by the RMCF’s overt bias. It’s in the name! Shout out to the mods who do a fantastic job. Valyrian Steel, Kung_Fu_Zizou, juninho, Not RObutWhite and sincerely, felipejack

CDR: Leganés

So, the next matches are:

  1. Salzburg (UCL, January 22)
  2. Valladolid (LL, January 25)
  3. Stade Brestois, also known as Brest (UCL, January 29)
  4. Espanyol (LL, February 1)
  5. Leganés (CDR, February 5)
  6. Atlético (LL, February 8 – confirmed yesterday)

In case of a possible CDR semi-final, the matches (the semi-finals have two matches) will be played on February 25 and April 2. The final will be played on April 26.

UCL table

In case you’re wondering, here’s the UCL schedule:

  • Knockout Round Playoffs (also known as R32, 9th to 24th place clubs): 11/12 and 18/19 February
  • Round of 16 (clubs from 1st to 8th place): March 4/5 and 11/12
  • Quarterfinals: April 8/9 and 15/16
  • Semifinals: April 29/30 and May 6/7
  • End: May 31

Salzburg

Vázquez is suspended for tomorrow’s game. In addition, Lorenzo Aguardo will not be in the squad, since the club did not include him in the club A list for UEFA competitions.

Thus, Valverde and Asencio are the RB options. Opting for Asencio probably means Alaba starts, as Tchouameni is also a doubt. In other words, Valverde is likely to be the right back. Relevo reported that Ancelotti tried Valverde at RB in training yesterday.

Will Carlo leave at the end of the season?

Today, many Real Madrid accounts have reported Onda Cero’s Edu Pidal’s claim that Ancelotti has decided to leave the club at the end of this season. However, it seems that this source is not very reliable: it is the same that Alaba, erroneously mentioned, would retire due to an anterior cruciate ligament injury.

Other sources, including Romano, claimed that Ancelotti has not decided to leave. Brazilian journalist Tatiana Mantovani from TNT Sports, who covers Real Madrid (I just discovered that she also comments for Radio Marca), mentioned that no other source has managed to confirm the rumor of his departure. She stated yesterday:

Everything I was able to explore from this goes along the lines of Ancelotti wanting to fulfill his contract with Real Madrid, which ends in June 2026. Tomorrow is the press conference and we could hear it directly.

It will be interesting to see if Carlo will make his usual confirmation that he wants to stay at Real Madrid “forever” or if he will respond in a similar way to when they were negotiating with Brazil: “I will only talk about my future at the end of the season.”
