According to a report in the Spanish press from Relevo, Ancelotti received a 'reprimand' from Perez on the flight back to Madrid after Sunday's loss to Barcelona. Ancelotti responded with a suggestion he needs January reinforcements, as relayed by 90min. Those claims were quickly shut down despite links hinting that Liverpool defender Trent Alexander-Arnold will join the club in the summer.
Ancelotti stated, "Let's make one thing clear: this is a press conference, not a debate. I debate with my coaching staff and my players. Opening a debate here does not seem to me to be the most appropriate place..." highlighting the tension surrounding discussions on team performance and future strategies.
Ancelotti expressed the importance of the upcoming match, saying, "(Playing at home against Celta) is an important opportunity to come back from the bad game we played, which hurt us a lot but didn't sink us. We want to react and I hope it goes well, that the reaction is strong after the bad game the other day."
