Xabi Alonso, the head coach of Real Madrid, is scheduled to hold a crucial meeting in the coming weeks with club president Florentino Pérez and general director José Ángel Sánchez.

The Spanish newspaper "Marca" reported that this meeting will aim to outline the team's lineup for the new season, especially after being eliminated from the semifinals of the Club World Cup.

The source added that Real Madrid's management wants the coach to make quick and decisive decisions regarding the future of some players, as well as to identify the team's needs.

The coach opened the door to making new signings, following the loss yesterday against Paris Saint-Germain 4-0, stating: "From now on we are open to improvement. Our constant goal is to evolve, and there is room for that."
