This project involves appointing Xabi Alonso as Real Madrid\u2019s head coach, a decision driven by his dedication and perseverance, which have made him well-suited for the role. All signs point to him potentially taking over the team next summer.<\/p>\n
Alonso, who has already started planning for his future, intends to shape Real Madrid\u2019s identity by that time. As part of this vision, he has made an unusual request to Florentino P\u00e9rez, seeking the signing of a \u201cdark horse\u201d player from La Liga in 2025\u2014someone who could surprise in the future.<\/p>\n
The current Bayer Leverkusen manager is highly respected at the club, and many believe he will join Real Madrid soon. Although the club remains satisfied with Ancelotti\u2019s performance, the management is still planning ahead and considering his potential successor.<\/p>\n
Recent reports suggest that Alonso\u2019s first major request, should he take the role, is to sign Mart\u00edn Zubimendi, a Real Sociedad player who has long been a target for Real Madrid.<\/p>\n
Zubimendi, a talented midfielder at Real Sociedad, has recently drawn the attention of the Madrid club because of his considerable potential. With a \u20ac60 million release clause, many consider it to be a reasonable price for his abilities, making a move for him possible.<\/p>\n
Additionally, the strong ties between Real Madrid and Real Sociedad could help facilitate the negotiations, increasing the likelihood of Zubimendi joining the Bernab\u00e9u in the near future.<\/p>\n
With Toni Kroos\u2019 departure weakening Real Madrid\u2019s midfield, there is belief within the club that Zubimendi could be the ideal replacement for the German. The Spaniard\u2019s excellent form this season further supports this idea, and discussions are moving forward, with nothing yet ruled out regarding his potential transfer to Real Madrid.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
