Xabi Alonso has not yet been officially announced as the next coach of Real Madrid, but within the club, it is already considered certain that he will take over from Carlo Ancelotti once the current season concludes. The Italian coach is heading towards the Brazilian national team, while the former White player, currently coaching Bayer Leverkusen, is quietly preparing his arrival at the Santiago Bernabéu’s bench.

One of the first names Xabi Alonso has raised is Jonathan Tah, a center-back whom he knows perfectly and with whom he has achieved great results in Germany. The coach believes that if the club does not want to make a large investment in that area of the field, the German international is a reliable and dependable alternative.

The sports management and Florentino Pérez have other plans for the defense

However, as reported by DefensaCentral, the Real Madrid sports management has other profiles in mind. Florentino Pérez and José Ángel Sánchez believe that Tah falls slightly short of the quality standards the club requires, and they prefer to bet on players who have long been on the Blancos' radar: William Saliba from Arsenal and Ibrahima Konaté from Liverpool. Two players who, due to their youth, elite experience, and potential, better fit the future plans of the Merengues.

Nevertheless, they assure from Valdebebas that Alonso's opinion will be taken into account, although they are aware that in Real Madrid, the final decision does not rest with the coach. The club is already working on significant reinforcements for a squad that, despite its quality, needs new pieces to continue competing at the highest level. With the arrival of the Basque coach, a period of excitement opens up, but also one of demanding expectations.
