Real Madrid are still planning for next season not only in regard to the main team, but also Real Madrid Castilla. At the white club, long-term strategy is essential, and every decision made has a significant impact on the future.
Club's president Florentino Pérez is aware that the youth academy is an inexhaustible source of talent that can feed the first team.
Furthermore, Florentino Pérez understands the importance of developing young players and integrating their skills into the main team, thus ensuring the constant growth of the club.
Florentino Pérez Has the Floor
Florentino Pérez has made the firm decision to seek a new direction for Real Madrid Castilla. The news of Raúl González's departure has been received with various reactions. Although Raúl has played a prominent role in the development of young talents, the president is looking for a change that will revitalize the team.
The relationship between Raúl González and Florentino Pérez has been a close one. However, the president has decided that it's time to make a transition at Castilla.
The Youth Division and the Future of Real Madrid
Florentino Pérez is not only thinking about the main team. He is also looking at the future through the youth division. In this sense, Real Madrid Castilla will be key for next season.
The youth academy has historically been a source of talent for the first team and Pérez wants to ensure that it remains that way.
A major change is taking place at Castilla. Álvaro Arbeloa, who until now was in charge of the Juvenil A, will be the new coach of Castilla.
The move aims to strengthen the development of young talents who can reach the main team. Arbeloa's arrival promises a new vision for the club and a renewed approach to the development of soccer players.
Raúl González Blanco: a Change, but not a Farewell
The decision to replace Raúl González Blanco doesn't imply a dismissal, according to Florentino Pérez. The president doesn't want to do without the legendary number 7.
Instead, a new role will be sought for him within the club constitution. This could be a role in the main team coaching staff, collaborating with Ancelotti.
Raúl has been a key player at the club and his legacy is undeniable. However, in recent years, he's received several offers from other clubs.
This puts Raúl in an interesting position as he must decide about his future. His passion for Real Madrid and his desire to continue contributing are factors that will influence his decision.
