Arbeloa: It upsets me that I couldn't help the players win a trophy

Alvaro Arbeloa spoke after Real Madrid's 1-0 away victory over Sevilla in the 37th round of La Liga. This is expected to be one of the last two matches for the coach at the helm of the "Los Blancos" first team, as rumors of Jose Mourinho's imminent signing intensify. Vinicius Junior scored the sole goal of the match, and Arbeloa commented on him and Kylian Mbappé, stating they are among the most dangerous attackers in the world.

“I arrived as a third-division team coach and I'm leaving as a Primera Division club coach who led matches in the Champions League. These four months have been a great experience and a wonderful lesson for me. Even communicating with you feels like a master's degree. I leave with a clear conscience.

Real Madrid has millions of fans. Some will agree with me more than others. But I feel the support and love of the fans. I am 43 years old, 20 of which I have spent at Real Madrid. These are many years in a place I consider my home.

The hardest thing at this club is the moments when you don't win. What upsets me most is that I couldn't help the players win a trophy. Because of the level of demands, because of the hopes of so many people resting on our shoulders. The fact that I couldn't help them achieve victories hurts me the most.

I am very pleased with all my players and the attitude they showed. We understand that we haven't achieved our seasonal goals. I've been here for four months, and Mbappé and Vinicius have given their all. Each of them had their own challenges throughout the season.

I think these are two players every club in the world would want to have. If they had the chance, any team would sign them without hesitation. They are definitely two of the five most dangerous and unpredictable footballers in the world. Vinicius scored today, but Kylian also put in a tremendous amount of effort. I hope luck is on his side next weekend,” Arbeloa said.
