Guti: I m optimistic about Paris Saint-Germain and Real Madrid meeting in the Club World Cup final

June 13, According to the "Marca", Guti, who is about to serve as a commentator on the broadcast of the Club World Cup, was interviewed and talked about his predictions for the event.

The reorganized Club World Cup is coming soon. How do you view this new event?

I think this is a great event launched by FIFA. For fans, there will be vacancies during the summer offseason, and I think this type of event will help maintain everyone's enthusiasm for football, and the introduction of any new event is very important.

Opta ranks Paris Saint-Germain as the biggest favorite to win the championship, while Real Madrid is ranked fifth. Do you think a Club World Cup trophy can save Real Madrid's performance this season?

Real Madrid's season has always been aiming at La Liga and Champions League as its highest goals, but it is undeniable that the New World Club Cup is special because it is the first, and all clubs are eager to become the first champion. With the arrival of Xavi Alonso and the new players, Real Madrid has additional competitiveness. I think they do have a chance to win the championship. I am optimistic that Paris Saint-Germain will meet with Real Madrid in the final.

When Xavi Alonso made his debut as Real Madrid coach, what did those scenes convey to you?

I was very happy to see him. Alonso is a member of Real Madrid's own family. As a player, he is in his current style, that is, he is devoted to himself, always communicates with everyone, and always wants to help... All Real Madrid fans are full of expectations for him.

You were teammates with Alonso when Pellegrini was coaching Real Madrid. Did he show his coaching qualities at that time? Does he feel "verbose" when he issues instructions?

Yes, he has always been like this. From his position and how he communicates on the court, he always tries to position and give instructions for his teammates, and he talks a lot.

Among Real Madrid's confirmed signings and rumored goals this summer, which signing will make you most look forward to?

All signings are expected, they are important players, and most of them are very young, which helps Real Madrid build a solid and lasting lineup system.

How do you view Raul's departure? Do you hope he can stay in Real Madrid for a while?

As a Real Madrid fan, I certainly want to see Raul take charge of the first team, but this is the club's decision. It is not enough to be a club legend, and the club will choose the one it considers to be the most beneficial to the team.

Do you think Raul will coach Real Madrid's first team one day?

Yes, I think he will have a very good coaching career. I hope he can take over a team as soon as possible and make progress. He will definitely have the opportunity to coach Real Madrid in the future.
