Real Madrid Threatens Boycott Over Tight Match Scheduling

The club demands a minimum 72-hour rest period between games, citing player fatigue and FIFA recommendations.

Real Madrid has criticized the Spanish football league for scheduling matches with insufficient recovery time for players.
Head coach Carlo Ancelotti stated the team will no longer compete in games scheduled with less than 72 hours of rest between matches.
The club highlighted a recent instance where only 66 hours separated their Champions League match and a La Liga game, despite FIFA's recommended 72-hour rest period.
The Spanish league claims it adhered to its rule of providing at least two full days of rest and dismissed Real Madrid's complaints as unfounded.
Real Madrid has also escalated the issue by threatening to involve FIFA and accusing the league of ignoring their requests to reschedule matches.
