Real Madrid attacks four decisive days for the future. Tomorrow he visits Villarreal, a contender for the Champions positions, while he subconsciously thinks about Tuesday’s game in Paris against PSG. Karim Benzema does not travel to the city of Castellón because the doctors want to recover him so that he can play the European Cup affront in the Parc des Princes. There are two finals in four days. Asensio, Isco or Jovic will take their place in the center of the attack. The Mallorcan, in any case, will be the starter up front.

Ancelotti assessed the situation Benzema and the possible risks of his reappearance in Paris: «We are not going to take risks with Karim and he does not want to take them either.

If he plays it will be because there is no risk. He will train Sunday and Monday and then we will decide.” He added that Mendy does not travel to Villarreal either in order to have him against PSG: «Mendy is feeling better, but he will not play tomorrow and I hope he plays in Paris».

ABC questioned him about the plural message sent by Ancelotti, a coach who has won everything, to some footballers who have also won everything and who are now playing the League and the Champions League in the decisive phase: “You have to tell them few things because these players have won many titles. They have achieved all the titles and that happiness makes you want more Titles”.

“Mendy is better, he does not travel to Villarreal and I hope to have him well to play in Paris”

analyzed the Italian if playing tomorrow is an advantage for PSG, who do it tonight: “I don’t believe much in that difference of one day.” He did not reveal if the nine will be Jovic or a false tip: «Jovic is better but I have to decide if we play with a center forward or if we put another player to have more possession».

The coach of the Leader spoke of bale and his reality: «My personal relationship with him is very good, he is committed and he seems ready to play, but when I am going to put him on he will comply and can someone tell me why he has not put it on? Well, because after the injury he has cost to get to a good physical condition. In the last fifteen days he trains with intensity and with less risk of injury he is going to play ».

Neither he nor his men think of Paris Saint-Germain: «We have not seen things from PSG and we are focused on the Villarreal game, which created many problems for us in the game against Bernabéu and we have studied its characteristics and its weak points.

He reflected on the management of the locker room and the distribution of efforts, with the name of Valverde in the head: «I have not rotated due to fatigue because I have not seen the team tired, I have rotated out of obligation or because I have considered it necessary. I want to give Valverde more minutes.”

Do you prefer to play every three days or have weeks off?: «Honestly, I don’t know. If you are in a good moment it will be good for you to play every three days but if not, if you are tired, I understand that you prefer to rest the week. Having too much pause time can also be bad. Sometimes too much water kills the plant».
