There is plenty of news about Real Madrid in this morning’s sports papers after Carlo Ancelotti was interviewed at an event to launch his new website and social media on Monday afternoon.
The Italian covered many different areas, including the prospect of Luis Suarez signing for the club. Ancelotti did not want to be drawn on individual names however and said despite Suarez’ excellent season at Liverpool, it is impossible to improve a front three that already contains Gareth Bale, Cristiano Ronaldo and Karim Benzema.
He did admit Alvaro Morata would leave the club in search of first team football, but reiterated his belief captain Iker Casillas would stay and is happy with Los Blancos.
Meanwhile, Xabi Alonso has been discussing his international future in an interview with Cadena Cope. The veteran midfielder says he does not know whether he will call it a day after the World Cup in Brazil.
He told the El Partido de las Doce program: “I’ve not decided if I’ll retire from international football. I’m just focused on the World Cup right now. It depends on how we do in the tournament and then I’ll see. If I’m physically and mentally willing to continue, then I will.”
