Ancelotti’s cryptic answer about Real Madrid future, may drop Bellingham for Arsenal | OneFootball

Real Madrid coach Carlo Ancelotti gave a cryptic answer when asked whether he’d leave the club if he wins the treble and admitted he could rest Jude Bellingham ahead of a Champions League match against Arsenal.

Ancelotti’s Real Madrid are still running on three fronts this season, so the Italian tactician, who is under contract until 2026, was asked whether he could leave the club if he wins the treble this term.

“I’m not the one who should be asked this,” Ancelotti replied via Marca.

The Merengues host Valencia in a crucial La Liga match on Saturday before visiting Arsenal in the first leg of the Champions League quarter-finals on Tuesday next week.

The Italian tactician admitted that he could rest Bellingham in the upcoming league match.

“We have the option of resting him, but he usually recovers very quickly and is in good form. We’ll see it in today’s training, but resting him is an option.”
