Xabi Alonso will be the successor to Carlo Ancelotti at Real Madrid, with the legendary Italian coach who leaves at the end of the season, according to a report.
Ancelotti, 65, has confronted with pressure this season, even though it is one of the most decorated managers ever, and brings enormous success to the Santiago Bernabeu.
In two stints that manage the Spanish giants, he has won 15 trophies, including Three Champions League and two Laliga titles.
Barcelona follow in the competition, but losing in the Copa del Rey and Spanish Supercup Finals, and crashes from the quarterfinals of the Champions League to Arsenal seems to have brought down the ax.
On 25 May, after Real's last LaLiga match of the season against Real Sociedad, Ancelotti will say goodbye to 78,000 fans in the Bernabeu, according to Marca.
Los Blancos starts a new era under Alonso, which will leave Bundesliga side Bayer Leverkusen, and signs a three-year contract at the club for which he made 236 performances as a player.
Although the input from Alonso will be any weight, it is clear that signing sessions will still be done under the control of the club as soon as it becomes a member.
Really does not believe that a revision of a team is needed; The two main positions that they will strengthen in the summer are middle and midfield.
Alonso led Leverkusen to the Bundesliga and DFB-Pokal titles last season and lost only one match in 2023-24-the Europa League final to Atalanta.
This season his side was placed by the Bayern Munich of Vincent Kompany on the German league title.
As Leverkusen manager, Alonso took the lead over 138 games and won 88 – just below an impressive profit percentage of 64 percent.
In addition to the Bundesliga coach of the season last year, the Spaniard was also crowned 'Best Coach of the Year' by Globe Soccer.
Alonso's first game as a real manager comes to the club World Cup this summer, which starts in mid -June.
The 43-year-old will bring high-rated assistant coach Sebas Parrilla and fitness trainer Alberto Encinas from Leverkusen.
The decision to relieve Ancelotti from his duties was kindly taken last month after the exit of Champions League.
Ancelotti was associated with the empty job in Brazil, but has since rejected the offer to the World Cup 2026 in Leiden.
Although his next career step is unclear, it is assumed that he is considering a huge offer to manage in Saudi Aarabia, where he would earn € 50 million (£ 42 million) about the wingspan of his contract.
Real will still have to pay the Ancelotti allowance for next year, because his contract expires in 2026.
