Xabi Alonso has reportedly agreed to join Real Madrid as soon as Carlo Ancelotti would leave for the Brazilian coach job. Xabi has been a long time fan favorite to take the helm of the job after Ancelotti’s tenure as he has done an amazing job at Bayer Leverkusen and doing it again this season proves that it was no fluke.
Xabi Alonso has reportedly agreed to join Real Madrid
He has been amazing for Bayer and looks seasoned to be a coach at a club like Real Madrid.
Though Los Blancos have a history of hiring experienced managers but this might be another exception that the club president, Florentino Perez decides to make.
Perez and Madrid were a long time believer in buying the best talents in the world
Perez and Madrid were a long time believer in buying the best talents in the world and what were called as Galacticos but now they have devised a strategy of buying young potential talents and then developing them.
Vinicius Jr, Rodrygo and Fede Valverde are the prime examples of this strategy
Xabi Alonso can also be a good fit for the team as he has played for the club for several years and was an important player of the team. So, he understands the club values and principles. He also understands how fragile the Madrid Coach Job is and how easy the fans can turn against him and it is to be seen how he can handle the pressure.
It can get very “Real” and very quickly as Real Madrid is a different league from Bayer Leverkusen from where he surprised everybody but here everybody expects him to win whatever the situation is.
The gentleman’s agreement between Real Madrid and Leverkusen is what has benefited the white club with this important operation. Without having to spend a single euro, Real Madrid will be able to use this capital for the signings Xabi requests once he is the coach.
