Real Madrid boss, Carlo Ancelotti has suggested that the club does not want him to field younger players.

The veteran Italian gaffer was clear on why he replaced Arda Guler in Real Madrid’s easy 3-0 home win over Cadiz on Saturday,

The Santiago Bernabeu landlords clinched their 36th La Liga title on Saturday following Barcelona’s defeat to Girona.

The Italian boss was pressed for his reason to take off the 19-year-old Guler, who played well but was replaced by Jude Bellingham.

Ancelotti replied by saying that Guler was tired and that he needed fresh legs on the pitch.

“Arda Güler played the role he had to play, because he’s very young. I replaced him because he got tired and I wanted to have fresh legs to win the game.

“That’s what they asked of me at Real Madrid when they signed me, not to bring in young players,” Ancelotti said, via Get Football News.
