Butragueño: “The new Bernabéu is going to be a turning point”

“We have a team that invites optimism”

MADRID, 10 Nov. (EUROPA PRESS) –

The director of Institutional Relations of Real Madrid, Emilio Butragueño, appreciated the beginning of a “new stage” in the club’s history when the new Santiago Bernabéu opens, while admitting that the team “invites optimism” this season.

“We have a team that invites optimism, it is a mixture of established players, legends, and young people who are contributing more and more to us. It is a very positive mix that will allow us to aspire to all titles,” he said this Wednesday in a interview with Telemadrid, collected by Europa Press.

‘El Buitre’ reviewed the white news, with the names of Benzema and Vinicius above the rest, and with that new Bernabéu as an illusion of Real Madrid. “A Bernabéu that is in a process that is very exciting. We are renovating our house and the new Santiago Bernabéu will be a source of pride for all Madridistas, it will be a turning point for the club, a new stage will begin in the history of the club, “he confessed.

“It is a delight to see him play. You give the ball to Benzema and the play improves. He has enormous resources and natural talent near the area. He has been with us for 13 seasons and his performance is exceptional. For us he is already a Real Madrid legend and I hope it will be many more years, “he added about the Frenchman.

On the other hand, Butragueño highlighted the “personality” of the Brazilian forward Vinicius. “He has many virtues. He has a great personality as well as a lot of talent,” he said, before referring to another important figure this year, that of Carlo Ancelotti and his return to the white bench.

“Ancelotti is an ideal coach for Real Madrid. He is a wise man of football, he knows how to get the best out of the players and he has a personality that fits perfectly with Real Madrid,” he said about the Italian coach.
