Xabi Alonso's Real Madrid is already underway. The Club World Cup cannot be considered the work of the resident of Tolosa because it was part of Ancelotti's inheritance, and even Xabi did not want to change too many things, aware that with a title at stake it was not the best time and above all he brought an end to a project that was not his.
For this reason, what Xabi's Real Madrid can offer a mystery. They take on a project with signing sessions, but not a well -known difference maker. They have three defenders and a project for a great football player such as Mastantuono, who needs time. Ancelotti once brought in Kroos, James, Bellingham and Güler to reflect a ready-made group. Xabi has lost Modric, Plus Kroos, and it does not seem that the club is going on the market for a genius to replace it. He will have to let the team play with almost everything they had, which is not a small amount, but they have shown clear signs of exhaustion. The question is whether Xabi will be able to carry out the change in generation in midfield with which Ancelotti was entrusted and with which he could not be reached with Tchouaméni, Camavinga, Güler or Ceballos, with the same talent.
Ancelotti first, after reorganizing the great team he had built for Mourinho, then Zidane, and then again Carletto, lifted the dominance with a group of extraordinary players. They brought Cristiano, Benzema, Kaká and Xabi to the Portuguese in one. Zidane brought in Hazard, the best player on the score sheet at the time, and Carletto brought James and Kroos into his first enchantment, and Bellingham in his second.
Now Xabi has the obligation to regain his throne with Mbappé, Güler, Alexander-Arnold, Mastantuono, Carreras and Huijsen, Plus what remains of the golden age with Vinicius, Courtois, Carvajal, Rüdels and Militao. The Madrid of Cristiano, Modric, Benzema, Kroos and even Vinicius triumphed. Xabi has the mission to do the same with Mbappé's Madrid … and with the permission of Vinicius.
