Xabi Alonso is set to manage at least the upcoming match against Alavés on Sunday. However, should Real Madrid suffer a defeat, the club’s management may consider making drastic changes.
Details: According to journalist Florian Plettenberg, if Alonso is dismissed, former Liverpool manager Jürgen Klopp is among the leading candidates to take over.
Xabi Alonso’s position at Real Madrid has become shaky after the Blancos lost two consecutive matches—first in La Liga against Celta (0-2), and then in the Champions League against Manchester City (1-2).
It’s worth noting that Jürgen Klopp has not managed since May 2024, when he departed Liverpool, and now he could be on the verge of returning to the dugout.
Reminder: Within the Real Madrid dressing room, everyone is fully backing Xabi Alonso.
