Real Madrid manager, Carlo Ancelotti has come out to say that Barcelona are not his direct rivals this season. He recently revealed this during a press conference, and fans have been reacting.
According to him, he doesn’t see the former La Liga champions as direct competition this season because they are too low down the table.
Ancelotti added that the likes of Sevilla and Real Betis pose more of a threat than Barcelona right now.
His words, “Barca are not direct rivals now, because there are other teams closer like Sevilla or Betis.”
“But they have the quality to move up the table and if I were Barcelona’s coach, I would say exactly the same as Xavi.”
