Real Madrid Studies Alonso's Alternatives in Case of His Departure
Monday 01-12-2025
The website "Fichajes" confirmed that Real Madrid's management is considering its options in case the team's poor results continue under the leadership of Xabi Alonso.

The Spanish coach is facing significant pressure due to the decline in performance and strained relationships with some of the players, prompting the management to look for alternatives to ensure the team's stability in the current season.

The report clarified that the first option for the management is Zinedine Zidane, the club's former legend, who represents an emotional connection with the fans and the locker room, and has extensive experience managing star-studded teams. The management indicated that the proposed project for him would be short to medium term, with full sporting authority.

The source added that the management is aware of the difficulty of Zidane's return, so they are preparing another high-caliber alternative, the German coach Jürgen Klopp, known for his attacking style and high pressing. He could provide a moral and technical boost to the team if brought in, despite the difficulty of convincing him to return to coaching at this time.

The report indicated that Xabi Alonso's job security depends on the results of the upcoming matches, as a series of victories could give him the opportunity to continue the project, while continued poor performance would trigger the contingency plan. In that case, Zidane remains the first choice, while Klopp represents a promising alternative to restore the team's identity and competitive spirit.

The same source confirmed that the final decision will be made based on the team's performance developments over the coming weeks, a critical period for determining the coaching direction in one of the most challenging positions in world football.
