Raul Says He’s Fine at Castilla as Talks of Replacing Ancelotti Grow
Real Madrid legend Raul has addressed the ongoing speculation about him possibly taking over from Carlo Ancelotti as the club’s next head coach.
With questions surrounding Ancelotti’s future at the Bernabeu, reports have suggested that the Italian tactician might part ways with the club at the end of the season. He’s also been strongly linked to the Brazil national team job, especially as his current deal with Real Madrid is set to expire in 2026.
Raul, who currently manages Real Madrid Castilla and has been in that role since 2019, responded calmly when asked about the situation. He made it clear that he’s not letting the rumours distract him.
“I’m happy where I am,” Raul said. “This is where I want to be. When the time comes, and the club decides on anything—if they do—we’ll talk about it. But right now, the focus is on staying calm.”
He emphasized the importance of focusing on the present, as the season is nearing its final stretch and there’s still a lot on the line. Raul added that discussions about his future or any big decisions will come later, stressing that he’s completely at ease for now.
The former striker is one of the most iconic figures in the club’s history, having played 16 seasons in Madrid’s first team. He made 741 appearances, scored 323 goals, and provided 135 assists during his career with the Spanish giants.
Manchester United have released a list of players who are expected to leave the club during the summer transfer window.
A statement from the club listed the players as Jadon Sancho, Casemiro, Tyrell Malacia, Sonny Aljofree, James Bailey, and Malachi Sharpe.
It was noted that Casemiro enjoyed a strong season at the club and built an excellent reputation during his time with the team.
Meanwhile, Tyrell Malacia made 50 first-team appearances for Manchester United during his spell at the club.
Liverpool have released a list of players who are confirmed to leave the club this summer.
The list includes star players Mohamed Salah, Andy Robertson, and Ibrahima Konaté. While some players are leaving, others have been offered new contracts.
The players who have been offered fresh terms include Kyle Kelly, Afolami Onanuga, Oliver O’Connor, Lucas Pitt, Ben Trueman, Matthew Wright, Prince Cisse, and Keyrol Figueroa.
Nigerian striker Victor Osimhen has urged Ademola Lookman to consider a move to Galatasaray.
It can be noted that Lookman recently completed a transfer to Atlético Madrid, and since then, many European clubs have shown interest in the player.
Osimhen then shared an encouraging message to the player, stating that he would be welcome at Galatasaray.
“We are waiting for you at Galatasaray. Come and be a part of this family.”
