Real Madrid manager Álvaro Arbeloa has confirmed that Saturday’s match will be his final game in charge of the club, bringing an end to a brief but intense spell leading the first team.
Arbeloa acknowledged that while the role came unexpectedly, he fully committed to the responsibility and focused on guiding the team through a difficult period, prioritizing the club’s needs over personal plans.
“I’ve spent 20 years at Real Madrid in many different roles. It will be my last game this season as Real Madrid manager,” he said, adding that he feels ready for “new challenges” after gaining valuable experience during his four months in charge.
He reflected on the pressure and challenges he inherited, noting that managing the squad required constant adaptation and strong focus on the team’s stability rather than long-term planning.
Arbeloa also expressed gratitude to his players and staff for their support during a demanding spell while confirming he will now take time to decide his next career step once the season concludes.
