The Super Cup of Spain
I have five Spanish Super Cup victories to my name because to Real Madrid. Playing for Real Madrid is always a wonderful pleasure. With Fluminense, I attended the Club World Cup in Saudi Arabia. The players seem to be in excellent shape and are eager to compete in this competition, based on our recent conversation.”

“Hopefully it’ll be a nice game for the fans and I hope Madrid win.”
Bellingham
My son Liam wanted to have his photo taken with him because he considers him to be his hero. He looks fantastic. He’s off to a terrific start. Although there’s always space for development at Real Madrid, he’s made an incredible start and is virtually invincible.”
The team’s Brazilian members
“Everyone is doing great and is really content. With each passing season, they get better. I try to help Militão, Rodrygo, and Vini Jr. as much as I can by talking to them whenever I can.”
Support from Ancelotti at the Libertadores final
“I told him he would be rooting for Fluminense when we spoke prior to the Copa Libertadores final. That’s why I wanted to give him the jersey I wore in the final because it was special for me and I know that all the Madrid fans were behind me.”
