Determining the time when coach Xabi Alonso will lead Real Madrid

Transfer news expert Fabrizio Romano confirmed that Xabi Alonso has agreed to sign a three-year contract with Real Madrid.

Initially, many sources confirmed that Real Madrid would have to pay 20 million euros to release coach Xabi Alonso from his contract at Leverkusen. However, the actual figure was much lower. Bild newspaper said that the amount Los Blancos had to pay to have coach Xabi Alonso was only 5-10 million euros.

This is a complete failure season for Real Madrid when they are almost certain to go empty-handed. Even more sadly, the Spanish Royal team has lost all 4 matches against Barcelona this season. Therefore, Real Madrid's leadership wants to make a major reform.

According to expert Fabrizio Romano, coach Xabi Alonso could take over at Real Madrid as early as June 1, in time to lead the team to compete in the FIFA Club World Cup. The club will play its opening match in this tournament against Al Hilal on June 19. In addition, Los Blancos will also have to face Pachuca and Salzburg in this group.

To Real Madrid, coach Xabi Alonso will bring two assistant coaches Sebastian Parrilla, Alberto Encinas and fitness coach Ismael Camenforte-Lopez. According to AS, coach Xabi Alonso and the Real Madrid board of directors consider Mbappe to be the focus of the team's rebuilding process. The French striker will be planned to become the new leader at Bernabeu.

Xabi Alonso spent 5 years as a player for Real Madrid (2009-2014). During that time, he won all the prestigious titles with the club such as 1 La Liga championship, 1 Champions League, 2 Spanish King's Cups, 1 Spanish Super Cup. Now, Xabi Alonso wants to reap similar success as a coach.
