‘Daily Mirror’: Guardiola can prevent Xabi Alonso from signing for Madrid

Real Madrid is working right now on the future, something that goes beyond the good performance that the merengue team is having at the start of the season, both in LaLiga and in the UEFA Champions League.

Carlo Ancelotti is focused on what he can control, so he does not want to know beyond this course, especially since his continuity for 2024-2025 is not guaranteed.

This uncertainty on the Real Madrid bench continues to hover over the Santiago Bernabéu stadium, something that white fans don’t like at all due to the noise it generates.

This has made Florentino Pérez and José Ángel Sánchez work on planning the next season, so they have a list of future coaches, always in case Ancelotti does not continue.

This list has two clear candidates, which are Xabi Alonso and Zinedine Zidane, although the name of the Spanish legend is in great danger, something that Merengues sports officials already know.

The ‘Daily Mirror’ has revealed that Manchester City would be following in the footsteps of the current Bayer Leverkusen coach, which would clearly complicate his arrival at the Santiago Bernabéu stadium.

Citizens have thought of the former Real Madrid player as a replacement for Pep Guardiola, who in recent months has been having a very difficult time with his team.

Manchester City’s sporting officials are beginning to see signs of exhaustion in Sampedor, as well as in his speech, which is not fully reaching the English dressing room, so Txiki Begiristain would have Xabi Alonso on his agenda, something that is not liked by Florentino Pérez.
