The Spanish newspaper "Marca" reported in a report that coach Álvaro Arbeloa enjoys broad support within Real Madrid to continue leading the coaching staff for the next season.

The report indicated that Arbeloa gradually succeeded in gaining the trust of the locker room, and his personality became highly influential among the players. He left a clear mark in his daily interactions with them by relying on continuous dialogue, defending his players publicly, and being candid with them inside the locker room. This contributed to restoring harmony and enhancing the team spirit within the squad.

The newspaper added that the recent results and his tactical confidence have strengthened his position within the Real Madrid dressing room and the corridors of Santiago Bernabéu, especially with the team's improved performance despite the pressure of matches and player absences due to injuries.

He is supported by several of the team's top players, most notably Vinicius Junior, Federico Valverde, Thibaut Courtois, Aurélien Tchouaméni, and Antonio Rüdiger, in addition to his good relationship with Jude Bellingham and Kylian Mbappe. He has also gained the trust of other players like Arda Güler, Fran García, Brahim Díaz, and Andriy Lunin.

One of the most notable actions that earned him the team's respect was his decision to exclude English player Trent Alexander-Arnold from the starting lineup in the derby against Atletico Madrid due to his lateness to training, prioritizing the team's interest over any personal considerations.

Arbeloa also enjoys significant support from the club's academy players due to his reliance on them and giving them opportunities to participate with the first team. Therefore, the young coach has become a strong candidate to continue coaching Real Madrid beyond the current season.
