It's not yet official, but Xabi Alonso (43) will become the next Real Madrid coach. Spanish will also sign a contract until June 2028 as announced El Chiringuito. While he was to go into office after the FIFA club World Cup this summer, the one who has officiated at Bayer Leverkusen in recent seasons will finally arrive in Madrid on June 1. However, the Merengues had imagined appointing an interim coach for this summer tournament, namely Santiago Solari, before Xabi Alonso took place.
AS explains that the residents of the Santiago-Bernabéu stadium finally changed their mind after the complicated end of the team of the team and especially because a lot of money is at stake during the Club World Cup. Indeed, Real Madrid takes this competition very seriously which can bring up to € 150 million. The Iberian club therefore wants to put the odds on its side by entrusting the truck keys to Xabi Alonso, which will also be accompanied by three recruits to start this tournament and its new adventure within Casa Blanca.
