Xabi Alonso does not want Vinícius at Real Madrid

The foundations of Real Madrid are undergoing an internal earthquake that threatens to blow up the season. On the eve of the crucial Champions League match against Manchester City, high-voltage information is shaking the Spanish capital. The crisis is not only about results but also about coexistence. Coach Xabi Alonso has reportedly demanded in no uncertain terms that one of the team's key figures, Brazilian star Vinícius, be immediately transferred.

Xabi Alonso Doesn't Want Vinícius

Journalist Carlos Fite, on El Chiringuito de Jugones, revealed an "irreversible" situation between the Basque coach and the talented forward. This friction has caused a deep divide within the squad. A significant part of the dressing room opposes the Spanish coach, adding unbearable pressure to his already delicate situation. Today, the obligation to beat Manchester City is not only for sporting glory but for the survival of Xabi Alonso on the bench. The coach feels that the white leadership has not provided the necessary support. According to the coach's circle, the obligation to field the Brazilian winger has been an institutional imposition. The Spanish coach does not have the winger in his plans and believes his presence is detrimental to the team dynamics.

The Rift in Real Madrid and Vinícius's Future

The discord between Vinícius and his coach is an open secret that has turned into a public conflict. The Brazilian forward has not established a positive connection with the coach's methods or decisions. This tension has transcended the field and is now a human management problem. The forward, whose contract with the club extends until the summer of 2027, has halted his renewal. The reason for this inaction is twofold. On one hand, the player demands an astronomical salary, around €30 million annually, a figure the Real Madrid has not been willing to pay yet. But the second reason is more serious and personal: his rejection of Xabi Alonso continuing to lead the team. For the Brazilian, the coach's remaining makes his future at the club unfeasible.

The Intimate Conversation between Coaches

In this highly volatile scenario, communications among football heavyweights are constant. It has been revealed that Pep Guardiola, City's strategist and tonight's opponent, is aware of the situation. The Catalan coach and Xabi Alonso have frequent contact. The Spanish coach has confided in Guardiola all the details of his clash with the Brazilian player and his sense of lack of support. This leak places the white club at an unprecedented crossroads. It must choose between its coach or one of its most valuable and young assets. If the Merengues fall tonight, the dismissal of Xabi Alonso would be almost certain. But if they achieve the feat, the board will face the difficult task of parting ways with a player who is a fundamental part of the project. Coach Xabi Alonso's request is a declaration of open war. Florentino Pérez must act swiftly to prevent the fire from spreading. What is clear is that the outcome of this battle will determine the immediate future of Real Madrid. The Champions League clash is just a backdrop for a drama brewing slowly in the heart of the locker room. Today's result will be the key to either the coach's exit or the star's. Real Madrid is compelled to make a decision.
