Real Madrid were eliminated from the Champions League after losing to Bayern Munich in the quarter-finals. The Spanish side now faces its first season without a major trophy since the 2020-21 campaign. Reports suggest manager Alvaro Arbeloa faces pressure regarding his position following the result, per Sky Sports.
Bayern Munich progressed to the semi-finals after the two-legged tie, according to ESPN. Madrid currently trail in the domestic title race, leaving the club with limited opportunities to secure silverware this year. Arbeloa took charge of the first team after previously coaching the youth squads.
Internal discussions regarding the managerial situation are expected to take place before the end of the season. The club has not yet released an official statement on the manager's future. Real Madrid next face a league fixture as they attempt to finalise their position in the table, according to Reuters. Success in the Champions League has historically been a primary objective for the board of directors at the Bernabeu.
