Alonso or Ancelotti: Real Madrid Weighs Both Options for Managerial Role

Real Madrid has reportedly held preliminary talks with representatives of Xabi Alonso, according to sources close to the Spanish giants. The former Real Madrid midfielder, currently making waves as a manager, is seen as a potential candidate to take the helm at the Santiago Bernabéu.

However, the situation remains fluid. The future of current manager Carlo Ancelotti could hinge on the team's performance this season. If Ancelotti secures either the La Liga title or the Champions League trophy, his position at the club would likely be reinforced. The Italian tactician, under contract until 2026, has repeatedly expressed his desire to stay with Real Madrid beyond his coaching tenure.

Club president Florentino Pérez is known for his strategic decision-making and could orchestrate a transition that respects Ancelotti's legacy. "Carlo has been clear about his wish to remain at the club in some capacity after his coaching role ends," a source revealed. If Pérez offers Ancelotti a suitable position within the organization, the veteran manager is expected to accept, paving the way for a new era under Alonso.

Xabi Alonso, who has impressed with his managerial work at Bayer Leverkusen, represents a fresh and exciting option for Real Madrid. His deep understanding of the club's culture and his modern approach to the game make him a compelling choice. However, the final decision will depend on how the season unfolds and whether Ancelotti can deliver silverware.
