José María Gutiérrez believes he'll never return to Real Madrid in a working capacity.
Guti is determined to establish his coaching career, but believes the job at Real Madrid has passed him by.
“I think I have the doors of Madrid closed. Not for my part, for theirs," says Guti, pointing directly to the club. "As a coach, they didn't give me the opportunity to show in Castilla that one day I could make the leap to Real Madrid.
“It was the right time to leave. I had already been two years in Juvenil A. The first was very good and the second not so much, I needed a greater challenge. I didn't leave because they didn't give me Castilla. I am leaving because Real Madrid and Castilla had their benches occupied and I wanted to continue advancing in my career.
"If I had continued one more year at Juvenil A, I would have taken a step backwards."
