MADRID, Aug 2 (Reuters) - Real Madrid coach Fabio Capello has warned Danish midfielder Thomas Gravesen about his behaviour after Tuesday's bust-up with Brazilian team mate Robinho in training.
Capello was asked in a news conference on Wednesday whether
he thought Gravesen had had a poor attitude throughout the
pre-season camp in Austria.
He said: 'Possibly. But I am not going to have problems with
him. He is a little different but he works hard which is
important to me.
'His behaviour? I don't like it, he wants everyone to do
what he wants, and I have told him so.'
The two players had to be separated after a tussle in a
training match which started when Gravesen put in a late
challenge on Robinho.
When asked if he thought Gravesen would not be a problem
because he was one of the players likely to be leaving the club,
Capello responded: 'We shall see.'
Gravesen joined Real from Everton in January 2005 but
dropped out of favour last season, and the recent arrival of
Brazilian midfielder Emerson is a blow to his chances of making
it back into the first team.
He is one of a number of players Spanish media report are
considered surplus to requirements at Real along with the likes
of Pablo Garcia, Diogo and Francisco Pavon.
