Champions League champions Real Madrid are planning to give particularly popular players a short break during the new season. The impact of the increasingly dense international calendar on Madrileños is particularly evident. After winning the UFEA Super Cup this week, ÖFB captain David Alaba’s team is still participating in tournaments, cups, Champions League, Spanish Super Cup, FIFA Intercontinental Cup and Club World Cup.
“The players need to rest,” Real Madrid coach Carlo Ancelotti said at a news conference ahead of Real Madrid’s first La Liga match on Saturday. “We are considering giving individual players short holidays during the season. A week like this where players can be with their families, especially international players. Otherwise they don’t even have a day off during the season.” The allocation of rest days should be coordinated with club medical The decision is made after consultation with the department and consideration of the player’s physical condition.
Real Madrid won the national championship and the Champions League last season. There are still seven chances to win this season and the health of the players should not be put at risk. More importantly, with the extension of the North American Club World Cup season, the next one may start early due to the 2026 World Cup. Summer vacation in 2025 may be shorter than usual.
