Under the guidance of coach Carlo Ancelotti, Real Madrid is having a disappointing season. The team has lost 12 matches this season. "Los Blancos" also missed the chance to defend the Champions League title when they were eliminated by Arsenal in the quarter-finals.

A survey by Marca found that 41% of fans believe the defeat was due to poor planning by the board. The departure of Toni Kroos left a huge hole in the squad. A series of injuries to key players also weakened the team. Many fans believe Real failed because they did not invest heavily enough in key positions.

In addition, coach Ancelotti is also under great pressure. 69% of the survey participants of Marca think that the Italian coach should leave the club. Although he brought many successes to Real Madrid in the past, what Ancelotti shows on the field is no longer convincing.

Xabi Alonso is currently the most likely candidate to replace Ancelotti, receiving 48% of the vote from fans. Jurgen Klopp is in second place with 28%, while names such as Raúl and Zinedine Zidane are also mentioned.

To solve the current problem, 57% of Real fans voted that the team needs to spend heavily next summer, especially to find a player who can replace Kroos. Martin Zubimendi (Real Sociedad) is considered the top target with 33% of the vote, followed by Trent Alexander-Arnold (18%), Florian Wirtz (16%) and Dean Huijsen (13%).

In addition to new recruits, Real also needs to get rid of players who are no longer valuable to the club. Jesus Vallejo (15%), Lucas Vazquez and David Alaba (both 14%) lead the vote for players who need to leave Real soon. The top 5 also includes Ferland Mendy (10%) and Vinicius Junior (9%).

Real will have a busy summer, including finding a new coach to replace Ancelotti and cleaning up the squad, in preparation for the 2025/26 season.

Vinicius's goal to redeem himself still couldn't save Real. In the early morning of April 6, Real Madrid lost 1-2 to Valencia at home in round 30 of La Liga.
