Carlo Ancelotti has criticised Florentino Perez, the Real Madrid president, for his decision to fire Rafael Benitez.
Rafa Benitez was sacked by Real Madrid last week and Zinedine Zidane named as his replacement.
In an interview with Sina Sports Ancelotti said: “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.
“I also know our work is subject to debate, but this time I really cannot understand the decision. It’s only half-way through the season.”

Ancelotti, who was Real Madrid coach from 2013 to 2015, noted: “Zidane
is the fifth coach of Real since 2009, and there are questions that
need to be raised. Is it always the coach’s fault? Everyone can draw
their own conclusions.”
“But without doubt, Zidane has the sufficient capacity to lead Real Madrid. I sincerely wish him the best,” he added.
