Real Madrid boss Carlo Ancelotti insists Real Madrid are deserved La Liga champions after victory over Cadiz.

The 3-0 win against Cadiz and Barcelona’s defeat to Girona confirmed Real Madrid as 2023/24 La Liga champions.

Ancelotti said: “We’re very happy and very content. It’s a deserved LaLiga in every way and we’ve had fantastic support from the fans.

“We would like to celebrate with all the fans, but they understand because on Wednesday we have a very important challenge. We want to prepare well to make the fans happy and we will celebrate the title together on Saturday. Now it’s important to have a restrained celebration because Wednesday’s objective is very important.

“It’s been easy to manage this squad because there’s a lot of commitment, few egos, everyone helps each other and are friends. We have a good atmosphere and these characteristics have allowed us to win. It’s been a fantastic LaLiga campaign, with a lot of continuity, commitment and attitude.

“Everything has gone well thanks to our players and above all to the fans. Here at the Bernabéu they have given us a lot of support in every game.”
