Arbeloa Confirms that He Is Leaving Real Madrid Amid Talk of Mourinho's Return
He said he has spent four months thinking about Madrid and will not join José Mourinho’s staff.
- Real Madrid manager Arbeloa confirmed on Friday he will leave the club this summer, with his final match Saturday against Athletic Club marking his 28th game in charge.
- Arbeloa has served Real Madrid for 20 years in various roles, overseeing 17 wins, two draws, and eight losses during his four-month managerial tenure. He expressed gratitude, saying, 'I leave grateful after eight years, leaving many friends behind.'
- Mourinho is expected to replace Arbeloa, but the departing manager stated, 'There's no chance I'll be part of his staff.' After four months focused solely on Madrid, Arbeloa emphasized it is now time to think about himself.
- Arbeloa praised defender Dani Carvajal, who will receive a tribute during Saturday's match, calling him 'the model of what a Real Madrid player should be.' He hopes the Bernabéu crowd stands to honor Carvajal when substituted.
- Beyond his departure, Arbeloa criticized the unresolved Negreira case involving Barcelona president Joan Laporta, stating, 'We're still waiting for a resolution to something so serious that it stained Spanish soccer.' Vinicius remains absent for personal reasons ahead of the final match.
