Per Kike Marín of El Confidencial, Real Madrid Femenino’s players sent a letter to Real Madrid’s board requesting for coach David Aznar to be sacked. Marín claims that the club stopped the players from taking their message public.

Marín also writes that the players did not speak to Aznar on the team’s trip back from Ukraine and that the relationship with Ana Rossell is similarly bad.

Marín says that Aznar would have already been dismissed after the loss to Athletic Bilbao if Madrid didn’t immediately have to travel to Kharkiv before playing Eibar on Sunday.

Real Madrid’s record in the league currently stands at four losses and one draw in five games and the fanbase overwhelmingly feels that Aznar needs to go.

Whether Marín is right about the players’ sentiments are less clear. He is often accused of anti-Madrid bias, but Managing Madrid has reason to believe that there is discontent with Aznar’s coaching in the dressing room.

However, as to the existence of a letter and a potential public statement — remain skeptical until we have further news.
