Real Madrid stars forced to intervene after second dressing room clash between defenders – report

It has been an eventful week for the Spanish media, especially in terms of their coverage of the internal politics in the Real Madrid dressing room.

Contrary to what is seen on the field, there appear to be several rifts among players in the squad, with altercations on the training field now becoming commonplace.

One such rift reported in recent days was the fight between Antonio Rudiger and Alvaro Carreras, which led to the former slapping the new signing, something he reportedly later apologised to the entire squad for.

Not just once

As confirmed by El Chiringuito in a recent report, the incident between Carreras and Rudiger took place over a month ago. It was then that the defender apologised for his actions.

That, however, was not the end of the story, and the friction between the two players flared up again two weeks ago.

Once again, it was Rudiger as the offending party and Carreras at the receiving end.
