Pressure Mounts on Alonso at Real Madrid

Alonso, 44, finds himself under significant scrutiny at Real Madrid only six months after taking over from Carlo Ancelotti.

Dissatisfaction Among Players

Reports indicate that multiple players in the Real Madrid squad are dissatisfied with the coaching style and are longing for the more laid-back approach favored by Ancelotti.

Recent Performance Concerns

The team’s recent form, with only two victories in their past five matches across all competitions, has not been beneficial for Alonso’s position. However, league president Tebas remains confident in his ability to rectify the situation.

“I have experienced this scenario many times before,” he remarked. “Real Madrid is a club that knows how to navigate through challenging times. Xabi Alonso carries the essence of Madrid within him, and I trust that he, along with the players and the organization, will progress. This mentality has been ingrained in them since childhood, and Xabi knows it well.”

Tebas also provided advice for Alonso: “He should remain true to himself. He is a successful coach, and achieving that in a competitive Bundesliga is no small feat. He is more than capable of leading this team forward. I encourage him and Real Madrid because they have a track record of overcoming adversity.”
