Alvaro Arbeloa confirms Real Madrid exit – ‘I tried to do things the best way for the club, not my way’
Alvaro Arbeloa confirms Real Madrid exit – ‘I tried to do things the best way for the club, not my way’ Real Madrid manager Alvaro Arbeloa has confirmed an open secret that he would be leaving the club after their final game of the season against Athletic Club on Saturday night. Interestingly, Arbeloa admitted that his decision-making was not always his own, prioritising the club first and foremost. Arbeloa’s future was one of the main talking points, with Jose Mourinho expected to replace him next week, depending on whether President Florentino Perez faces a challenge in the elections.
“I hope it’s just a ‘see you later. ’ I’ve always considered Real Madrid my home. I’ve been with Real Madrid for 20 years; it’s my home.
This is my last match this season, and I don’t know if it will be the last of my career as Real Madrid manager – we never really know. I’ll try to enjoy it. And I’m focused on winning,” he said, later confirming he would be leaving.
Arbeloa: “Tried to do best way for the club, not my way” Another of the key talking points was his relationship with the players, with several falling outs becoming public knowledge during the course of his four-month tenure. Arbeloa expressed no bitterness towards those players, but did reveal that his decision-making had been impacted by the club. “I’m very grateful to them for what we’ve been through.
I’m aware that at 25, you can’t have the same relationship. We’ve had differences, that’s normal. We’ve resolved them in the best way possible.
