Xabi Alonso has hammered it several times: there will be no privileges in Real Madrid this season, and players who are not at the level will take a tour of the sidelines, regardless of their status. A principle that he has already applied with players like Rodrygo Goes and Vinicius Jr, replacing Olympique de Marseille for example, which necessarily makes a lot of talk on the other side of the Pyrenees.
But there is a player who has completely disappeared … it's Gonzalo Garcia. Author of a sacred World Cup of clubs with Real Madrid, during which he scored 4 goals and delivered a decisive pass, he was seen by many as a luxury offensive joker for Xabi Alonso, or even a power holder in the event of still convincing services. Real Madrid has also received many club offers interested in welcoming it as part of a loan for this season, but the leaders have closed the door each time.
Famous playing time
However, at the start of the season, it is not used by Xabi Alonso. Of the five games played so far by the Merengues – 4 in Liga and 1 in the Champions League – he only played 29 minutes in total. Three small entries against Osasuna, Oviedo and Mallorca, and not the slightest playing time in the last two games, against Real Sociedad and against Olympique de Marseille. A situation that questions, especially that with the exception of a Kylian Mbappé in legs, we cannot say that the rest of the players in the offensive sector Merengue walks on the water.
Capable of playing in a point or on the right flank, Gonzalo Garcia must therefore be satisfied with crumbs, when many already saw him being selected with Roja for these international autumn truces. For the moment, Xabi Alonso has not really been questioned on this subject and when it was the case, he kicked in touch. But there is no doubt that the situation will not be able to remain like that indefinitely …
