Mayoral backs Carlo Ancelotti
Amidst extensive speculation over Ancelotti’s future at Genuine Madrid, Mayoral notably backed the Italian.
When asked whether he comprehends the criticism surrounding Ancelotti, Mayoral said (h/t MARCA), “There will constantly be criticism. At Real Madrid, when the results do not go well, there is criticism. On the one hand, I comprehend them and on the other hand, I do not.”
The previous Wolfsburg striker went on to praise Ancelotti for his accomplishments at Genuine Madrid.
“That’s what we discussed with Getafe. I understand the criticism that has been directed at us because of the last couple of games, but we have to take a look at whatever in the long term.

“Everything that Ancelotti has provided for Genuine Madrid and what he has done for Genuine Madrid recently. We need to offer credit to Ancelotti for what he has done at Real Madrid in recent years,” he stated.
Mayoral on Genuine Madrid
An item of the Real Madrid youth academy, Mayoral had featured in 33 competitive matches for Los Blancos throughout his time in the first-team, before he eventually signed up with Getafe in 2022.
As a former player, Mayoral was asked whether he thought in the club’s ability to turn things around against Arsenal.
“I was positive in Real Madrid’s abilities, and they showed that, even though they knew it would be extremely tough. It was harder than our match versus Manchester City or Paris Saint-Germain due to the fact that it was a very big result.
“But it holds true that we understand what Genuine Madrid can in the Champions League. I have actually been encouraged by that fact,” he responded.
As for the upcoming game against Real Madrid, Mayoral stated, “It’s an unique match, challenging like most matches. There are no easy matches in La Liga anymore.”
Lastly, the Spaniard noted out what he gets out of Los Blancos in spite of their bad momentum heading into this encounter.
“They are in a bad state after the defeat to Arsenal. They may not get the wins they want or need in the league, however we know the potential Genuine Madrid have.
“Genuine Madrid are always a hard team, they have players with excellent possible. It’s a challenging match, like any other, but we will try to handle it in the very best way possible. We are preparing well, and we hope we can win,” he concluded.
