There are already official contacts, Madrid launched itself for Ancelotti's successor

There is no need to give so much mystery to this topic. Real Madrid has a coach chosen for next year. On July 1, 2024, when Carlo Ancelotti is no longer linked to the White House after the months go by and no one offers him a renewal, Xabi Alonso will be the new coach of the merengue club. After two outstanding seasons at Bayer Leverkusen, the Madrid board has him as their main target to keep what they consider to be the most difficult bench in the world.

It must be said once and for all: if the Madrid board was really interested in Carlo Ancelotti remaining the coach after June 2024, they would have already offered him a renewal. But the Italian will be coach of Brazil in a project that includes two World Cup processes: 2026 and 2030. With the agreement ready, but not signed because the coach is still linked to the white club, Madrid must soon close its coach, according to OkDiario.

This same source maintains that Bayer Leverkusen is already aware of the situation: they know well that Madrid wants Xavi Alonso and that it will be one that ends the current 2023/2024 season. The directors of both clubs have maintained a great relationship for years, through connections in transfers or crossings where the camaraderie has always been very good. In addition, Real Madrid has already had the first informal contacts with Xavi Alonso and they are even aware of the exit clause he put in place in case Madrid looks for him.

The other options were never superior to Xavi Alonso

Julian Nagelsmann, new coach of Germany, Zinedine Zidane and even Raúl González who would move from Real Madrid Castilla to the main squad have been options, but always in the context of a plan B. Xavi Alonso is the only one who has the complete quorum of the and management to remove him from Bayer Leverkusen is not as difficult as it seems. With a very long season ahead, the board is preparing what will be 2024/2025, also demanding and with the aspiration of achieving the 15th.
