Real Madrid are thrilled with Carlo Ancelotti, with Florentino Perez considering the Italian the club’s best coach, as evidenced by his contract renewal until 2026.
But it seems that the club has already started thinking about the future, as journalist Antonio Guijarro revealed on his YouTube channel that there is a possible successor to Ancelotti at Real Madrid.
According to this source, Xabi Alonso, the former football star and current coach of Bayer Leverkusen, could be the one to take Ancelotti’s place at the Santiago Bernabéu in the near future.
Real Madrid seem to be closely monitoring Alonso’s development with Bayer Leverkusen, which reflects the club’s great interest in following his progress and development as a coach.
Xabi Alonso, who has rejected lucrative offers from clubs such as Bayern Munich and Liverpool, is showing a strong commitment to his coaching career, which increases the likelihood of him taking over Real Madrid in the future.
One of the reasons that supports this possibility is his good knowledge of how Real Madrid works, which is an important aspect in the process of choosing him by the Real Madrid management and Perez. According to information from the Spanish newspaper Defensa Central, Perez trusts Xabi Alonso’s ability to lead the young project at Real Madrid and achieve the results that the president aspires to in the future.
