JAKARTA - Real Madrid's 4-0 defeat against Barcelona at El Clasico in the La Liga match Spain is still coming. Coach Carlo Ancelotti is said to be dismissed even though his contract has just expired in 2026.

Rumors circulated that Madrid President Florentino Perez was furious. Because Madrid lost 4-0 at home to Barcelona in a big match at the Santiago Bernabeu Stadium, Sunday, October 7, 2024 in the morning WIB.

In the match in front of their own supporters, Los Blancos started very well. They bombarded the Barca defense and had scored through Kylian Mbappe. Only the goal was disallowed because Mbappe was offside. In the first half there were no less Madrid players eight times trapped offside. This shows that the hosts excel in possession of the ball.

But in the second half, the situation completely changed. Barca played attacking football very well and crushed Madrid. Striker Robert Lewandowski scored a brace within two minutes. Furthermore, Lamine Yamal and Raphinha brought Barca to destroy Madrid.

Although Ancelotti did not ignore the defeat and is optimistic that Madrid will rise, Perez is already disappointed with the defeat at El Clasico. According to SPORT's information, Perez will accelerate ending Ancelotti's contract.

Ancelotti's successful contract to bring Madrid to the La Liga and the Champions League will indeed expire in two years. Only, Perez wants his contract terminated once the competition is over. Perez also instructed to bring Xabi Alonso who is currently in charge of Bayer Leverkusen.

Alonso became the target of Madrid, Liverpool and Bayern Munich after being successful at Leverkusen. Only, Alonso refused to leave the German Bundesliga club. On the other hand, Liverpool are already compatible with new manager Arne Slot who replaces Juergen Klopp. Meanwhile, Bayern showed satisfaction with the performance of new coach Vincent Kompany.

Practically, Madrid seemed to have no competitors to sign Alonso. But the reason for the real dismissal was not only defeat at El Clasico. Ancelotti seemed to have failed to fulfill the expectations when Madrid signed Mbappe for free from Paris Saint-Germain.

Ancelotti is like struggling how to build a solid team since the arrival of Mbappe. Even the former Chelsea and Everton manager seemed to kill Jude Bellingham who was successful last season. Likewise, young star Arda Guler has not been maximized by Ancelotti.

It's just that the worst thing was the departure of midfielder Toni Kroos who decided to retire. Ancelotti failed to prevent the player's retirement decision from returning to Germany at Euro 2024. Kroos' departure clearly left a hole in Madrid's midfield.

Perez hopes that Alonso's plan to recruit 'immediately implemented'. Alonso, who has also defended Los Merengues, has actually extended his contract at Leverkusen. But he has the option to leave the club at the end of the season
