While Radio Marca announced Monday evening that the current coach of Bayer Leverkusen, Xabi Alonso, would take over from Carlo Ancelotti at the head of Real Madrid in the coming months at the end of the Italian’s contract, the latter wanted to react this rumor. For the former coach of AC Milan and PSG, seeing his ex-player at the head of Casa Blanca would seem obvious. A classy response from the great Carlo.
“I know him, because I knew him as a player. He has a great knowledge of football and he is doing very well at Leverkusen. I wish him, like Raúl or Arbeloa, to one day be the coach of Real Madrid. Because it’s the best. Because I like them very much. I hope one day they can coach this club.”said the Italian coach at a press conference, before the championship match against Las Palmas.
