Former Real Madrid striker Hugo Sánchez, who has just been appointed the Spanish league's new ambassador for the Americas, discussed the battle up front at his old club. "Benzema needs to prove he can cope with the pressure. Morata won't want to let this opportunity slip", he stated.
The Mexican believes Benzema "has had time" to fulfil his obvious "talent and ability", but the Frenchman has not demonstrated the "spirit and personality" required to lead the line for 'Los Blancos'.
As for Real's brand of football under Carlo Ancelotti, the legend stated that "Real Madrid must stay true to its style. You're not likely to ever see the same intricate passing other teams play at the Bernabéu".
Sánchez had positive words for another of his former clubs, Atlético de Madrid, whom he called "a serious contender for the title, because it's competing well and Diego Simeone has stamped his mark on the team. Plus, Diego Costa is a very effective striker who is in great form".
Finally, the ex-Mexico ace expressed his "pride" at being named the LFP ambassador. Though admitting the role "sounds a bit political", he said he would perform it "with all the professionalism and passion I showed at every team I played for".
