Ancelotti: Bellingham, Vinicius Are On Good Terms

Real Madrid coach Carlo Ancelotti has debunked rumours circulating in the media that the duo of Jude Bellingham and Vinicius are not on good terms.

Recall that on Saturday, Real Madrid defeated Celta Vigo, thanks to goals from Kylian Mbappe and Vini Jr. Williot Swedberg.

Speaking after yesterday’s victory, the Italian tactician stated that both players are not having any issue with each other.

“He’s contributing. I didn’t see what happened with Vini Jr, but he has a lot of guts and a strong character. After the game I saw them talking and laughing. I don’t think there will be any problems.”

‘Bellingham’s position has changed. The idea was to go in more with him from the second line on the right wing because in previous games Celta have suffered with balls to the back post. I liked Bellingham a lot today.

“Tchouameni with the ball was between the two centre-backs and that’s where we had a problem of balance in the first half because without the ball he had to get forward and that’s where we lost our shape a bit. In the second half we changed a bit and Tchouameni was more on the right.

“What we didn’t work on was the opposition losing the ball, Tchouameni getting forward and the centre-backs staying back. That’s when we suffered on the counter. With a different formation to the opposition, you can play with the pivot in front of the two centre-backs.”
