Coach Hansi Flick has commented on recent developments at Real Madrid, with particular emphasis on the sensational incident in the locker room between two of the Madrid team’s stars Aurelien Tchouameni and Federico Valverde.
Flick admitted that the event surprised him to some extent, but stressed that he does not see it as something unusual in the world of football and that, as a rival, he does not consider it his business.
“The beating at Real Madrid? These things happen everywhere in the world, not just at Real Madrid. It surprised me a little, but I don’t care because it’s not my team.”
In addition to the incident, Flick also focused on Real Madrid’s dangerousness on the field and the role of Kylian Mbappe, praising the Frenchman as one of the best players in the world.

“Real Madrid more dangerous with or without Mbappe? He is one of the best players in the world, honestly. What he brings to the pitch is an extremely high quality.”
According to Flick, Mbappe is a constant threat in every situation and stands out especially in the area near the goal.
“He is extremely dangerous in every situation. In front of the penalty area and inside it, he is an exceptional player.”
“And in front of goal, for me, in terms of the quality he has, he is the best right now,” the German concluded.
We recall that in the event of a victory in ‘El Clasico’, Barcelona would mathematically be declared La Liga champion, while a Real Madrid triumph would postpone the Blaugrana’s celebration for a little while longer.
