Carlo Ancelotti admits he didn’t always treat Eduardo Camavinga as he deserved. The Real Madrid technician explained this.
In a press conference, Carlo Ancelotti commented on some of his choices, which have been criticized by fans in recent weeks. In particular, the public did not understand certain replacements for Eduardo Camavinga. The Italian technician admitted to making mistakes.
“Against Valencia it was not a tactical change, he was doing well. I took him out to avoid playing at 10 (Camavinga had taken a yellow card, editor’s note). Against Barça, he could have done better in defense, but I wanted more players up front. It is true that I replaced him many times at half-time and, in terms of changes, I was not always fair with him. He’s good, I have a lot of confidence in him, he’s going to bring a lot to the team.”said the Madrid coach to the press.
Only 10 starts this season
Eduardo Camavinga joined the merengue formation in the summer of 2021 from Rennes and for an amount of 30 million euros. The French international (6 caps, 1 goal) has since participated in 65 games, in all competitions, for 2 goals and 3 assists. This season, the player has played 25 games, only 10 of which as a starter. The departure of Casemiro was not particularly beneficial to him. The situation could change from next summer as Luka Modric and Toni Kroos could leave. This did not prevent Didier Deschamps from retaining him in his group for the World Cup.
The defeat conceded by Real Madrid against Barça in the Supercopa (1-3) has not yet been digested by journalists and Madrid fans. The White House club is also 3 points behind Barcelona in the La Liga standings. The recovery operation will have to be started quickly to calm the frustration that is gaining the ranks of the Bernabeu…
