Former Real Madrid manager Carlo Ancelotti has criticised club president Florentino Perez for his decision to sack Rafa Benitez, saying he "cannot understand the decision."
Three-time Champions League-winning coach Ancelotti recently spoke to Chinese outlet Sina Sports and described his incredulity after hearing Benitez was fired just six months into his Blancos contract (h/t ESPN FC):
After many games this season, Real Madrid are still fighting for the titles in La Liga and the Champions League, but the president Florentino Perez decided to say goodbye to Benitez. I know the job of a coach is always about getting results.
