Pellegrini was relieved of his duties after an empty-handed campaign with Real, who are set to appoint Jose Mourinho for the vacant post.

"As (former Real coach and current Spain boss) Vicente del Bosque said, even the club show no respect for the position of the coach, and they don't give them the authority internally or externally," Pellegrini told Cadena Ser radio.

"(Chairman) Florentino Perez's project is extraordinary but I think he's got it wrong.

"I came here with high hopes and great pride to manage this team. Unfortunately I wasn't able to do what I wanted to do and I had differences from the beginning of the season.

"There were a lot of disagreements in the club. I asked for them to keep (Wesley) Sneijder and (Arjen) Robben, who were two very important players for me. I missed having a debate on sporting issues, with the coach included."
