‘Every Coach should want Madrid’

Carlo Ancelotti believes that every self-respecting coach should want to manage Real Madrid.

The current Bayern Munich coach was reflecting on his time at the Bernabeu in an extensive interview with Marca, where he recalled his time at the club with fondness.

"Every self-respecting coach should manage Real Madrid sometime in their life," explained the Italian technician.

"In my experience, it is the greatest thing in the world – a very nice, almost unique experience.

"What happens in Madrid does not happen at any other club, the worldwide support is breathtaking.

"Everywhere we appeared – hotels, airports, stadiums – were full of fans, it is an experience worth living."

Despite being controversially dismissed by the club a year after securing the Decima, the 57-year-old has no regrets about his spell in the Spanish capital.

"Those two years (at the club) were very nice. Yes they were very intense but also very nice," he continued.

"There is an unconditional love worldwide to Real Madrid and I was honoured to be a part of that."
