The team arrived in Madrid at 6am, there were no warning signs of what was going to happen. There were no discussions. The dressing room was hugely surprised, the players did not expect the dismissal of Xabi Alonso and did not know who his successor would be. 10, 20 minutes passed between the two releases and the players didn’t even know who was going to replace him.he declared.
