Ahead of a highly anticipated Champions League clash, a rematch of last year's final between Real Madrid and Borussia Dortmund, the German side opted to conduct all their training on home soil, refusing to train in the Spanish capital. Real Madrid’s head coach, Carlo Ancelotti, expressed his confusion over this decision.
Details: The Italian coach stated that he already has enough data to assess the opponent, and with matches now available for public viewing, there is little that can be kept hidden. Ancelotti added that spying on opposing teams is unnecessary in modern football.
Quote: "No, we don't have spies, football has changed. I don't think there are secrets about the opponent's team because you can watch all their matches. So, there are no secrets. To be honest, I don’t like it. I have enough data to assess the opponent based on their recent matches," Ancelotti commented.
Reminder: It was previously revealed that Borussia Dortmund’s head coach, Nuri Şahin, refused to hold a training session at the Santiago Bernabéu due to concerns about potential spying.
