Carlo Ancelotti making major change at Real Madrid due to Zinedine Zidane understanding

Real Madrid manager Carlo Ancelotti has opened up about his plans for next season, revealing he is set to change his formation in order to accommodate new signings

Real Madrid boss Carlo Ancelotti has revealed he is planning to tweak his system on their pre-season tour of America in a bid to get the best out of new signings like Jude Bellingham.

Real finished second in La Liga last season and were knocked out of the Champions League in the semi-finals by eventual winners Manchester City. And the Spanish giants have responded with a major overhaul of their squad.

Bellingham has been the biggest addition so far, making the move to the Bernabeu from Borussia Dortumund for an initial £88m. However, Real have also signed the likes of Fran Garcia, Brahim Diaz, Joselu and Arda Guler, while Marco Asensio, Karim Benzema, Eden Hazard and Marian have all left.

And Ancelotti is planning to move away from his favoured 4-3-3 system this season, amid suggestions he may now favour a midfield diamond given Real’s wealth of options in the centre of the park. Indeed, the boss has also suggested his new approach is a lesson he learnt while managing Zinedine Zidane at Juventus
