According to sports newspaper Diario AS, Real Madrid is currently in chaos and confusion, but the true root of the problem is not internal strife—it is a young and powerful Barcelona under Hans Flick's direction. This highly competitive Barcelona has left Real Madrid feeling desperate, and the situation appears irreversible. President Florentino's predicament closely mirrors what he experienced during the Guardiola era.

Real Madrid appears to have lost its way, with a season that begins without passion. But let us be clear: we must focus on the true state of Spanish football. The current problem facing Real Madrid, the source of its chaotic and turbulent days, is none other than Hans Flick and a strong Barcelona.
The sense is that the current situation feels permanent, not fleeting, and would be difficult to reverse, even with the introduction of multiple "Mourinhos" as before to create tension and attempt to destabilize Guardiola's legendary Barcelona. Back then, they succeeded partially: Guardiola, exhausted mentally and physically, departed early, before his dynasty's dominance in Spanish and European football had fully solidified.
Florentino's club now faces remarkably similar prospects to that era, reaching an almost pessimistic extreme. They face an extremely young squad, predominantly from La Masia academy, possessing a long and brilliant future and undeniable strength. A significant example is that this team forms the backbone of the current World Cup-winning Spanish national team. They have Lamine Yamal, Messi's successor, who will become the cornerstone of the team's future development. This special talent follows in his predecessors' footsteps and is poised to extend his dominance in world football for the next decade.
Equally, if not more, crucial is that this team is led by an extraordinary coach: meticulous, diligent, humble, consistent, professional, and driven by the desire to win. Hans Flick and this Barcelona are Real Madrid's true nemesis. Make no mistake and do not look elsewhere for the reason. This is the reality. Although the new season has just begun and it is not even late September, after another massive investment, the signing of five new players, and a third manager in a year (with a three-year plan for him), Real Madrid's prospects have become utterly bleak. Such upheaval is something no major club can afford.
The opponent Barcelona is captivating and charming; they play at lightning speed, ignite fan passion with victories, and are breaking all existing records. The signing of Rodri to Barcelona is a clear example. His choice clearly indicates the current preference trend in Spanish football. One of the world's best players could have chosen any club, but as a madrileño, he decisively chose a club with immense sporting stability, clear sports decision-making criteria, and a well-defined action plan. This is a solidly planned, intelligent, and well-run team, not one built on reckless spending and illogical whims.
Facing such a situation and such bleak prospects, and for no other reason, Florentino feels once again surrounded by enemies. He and his Real Madrid stand alone against the world, fighting everything. He clashes with all institutions and everyone in his sphere because he moves in the opposite direction. He disagrees with Tebas's LaLiga, with the Spanish Football Federation in Lausanne, with referees, with television channels, with media not aligned with Real Madrid, with UEFA over the Super League issue—in short, with everything. Real Madrid's real problem is Flick and Barcelona, and how long this dominance will last.
