Real Madrid sacked Xabi Alonso after their defeat in the Spanish Super Cup, and new details are now emerging about what was happening inside the dressing room.
Details: According to Marca, in early November Xabi Alonso shouted at Real Madrid players and said that he had not expected to be coaching children.
Quote: “I didn’t know I had come here to coach little children,” insiders quoted Alonso as saying in the dressing room.
This remark was prompted by the fact that some players were consistently showing a lack of commitment, taking offense easily, and whispering among themselves.
Reminder: On his Instagram page, the 44-year-old former Real Madrid head coach Xabi Alonso commented on his recent dismissal from the Galácticos. According to Alonso, he is grateful to the fans for their trust but admits that things did not turn out the way he had hoped.
