Xabi Alonso has become the trending coach in Europe, and there is already talk of his possible incorporation into Real Madrid. It is a rumor that has been gaining strength over the past few months, to the point that many already take his arrival at Santiago Bernabéu for granted. The Basque could become Ancelotti's successor on the Madrid bench, sharing one condition: both end their contracts in 2026.
BILD Sets Date for Xabi Alonso's Decision
In recent hours, there have been updates regarding Xabi Alonso's possible arrival at Real Madrid. BILD has revealed in Germany that the Donostian will give an answer about his future at the end of March, even providing a definitive date: the 27th.
If the mentioned day arrives and Xabi Alonso offers his decision, rumors about his signing for Madrid could grow or fall apart definitively. If the Basque indicates that he will leave Leverkusen, all eyes will turn to Santiago Bernabéu bench, where Ancelotti awaits a definitive resolution.
In this regard, Bayer Leverkusen trust that Xabi Alonso will stay and fulfill his contract, valid until 2026. If he wants to leave, he has a list signed long ago by which they commit to letting him go at a low price through a release clause. This includes the name of Real Madrid, as well as Liverpool and Bayern.
If Xabi Alonso Goes to Real Madrid, What Would Happen to Ancelotti?
In the command post, they consider that Ancelotti's cycle has already ended, successfully and gloriously. They need to bet on a future project that must be led by Xabi Alonso. Only La Decimosexta could change Florentino's mind. But the club doesn't want to keep Ancelotti waiting, to whom Brazil has once again offered the position of coach.
Leading the Brazilian national team would be the crowning achievement of Carletto's career, who will not coach a team again. After Real Madrid, everything else seems insignificant.
Eduardo Inda explained on El Chiringuito that Brazil has grown tired of the current coach Dorival Junior. He is a coach who took the position provisionally while waiting for Ancelotti's yes.
The fact that Ancelotti is the coach of Vinícius, Rodrygo, Militao, and Endrick has a lot to do with his selection as the future coach.
