The reason Real Madrid dominates the Champions League.

Former midfielder Ivan Rakitic believes Real Madrid's strength in the Champions League is not mysterious, but stems from a well-structured and stable system built over many years.

Real Madrid has always been a formidable opponent in the Champions League.

The former Croatian midfielder emphasized: "Everything is very clear. When you do your job well, you will reap the rewards. Real Madrid is doing many things right and the results accurately reflect that."

Rakitic acknowledges that there are still differing opinions surrounding the Spanish royal club. However, he asserts that achievements don't lie: "Everyone may have a different opinion, but what Real Madrid has achieved is not by chance."

According to the former Barcelona star, the fiercely competitive environment at the Bernabeu is also a key factor. "No player comes to Real Madrid with a guaranteed place or privileges. If you do well, football will reward you. Otherwise, you will be eliminated," he added.

Rakitic also emphasized Real Madrid's exceptional prowess in the Champions League. This is what makes them consistently highly rated, regardless of how strong their opponents are. After "Los Blancos" thrashed Man City, Rakitic warned that every team should be wary of the Spanish side.

"For me, Real Madrid has always been the number one contender. In theory, Man City might look stronger, but Real Madrid is the team with the clearest Champions League DNA," Rakitic concluded.

Rakitic's remarks once again reinforce the view that Real Madrid's success in European competitions does not come from luck, but is the result of an effective system, fighting spirit, and a tradition forged over generations.

In the quarter-finals this season, Real Madrid will face another strong opponent, Bayern Munich.

How would Klopp deploy his team if he took over Real Madrid? If he sits in the hot seat at Bernabeu, Klopp would most likely build a high-energy, aggressive pressing style of football, forcing the "Galacticos" to operate like a true machine.
