Real Madrid, Los Blancos want Xabi Alonso back for the Club World Cup

Milan, 18 April (LaPresse) – Real Madrid seems to have made up its mind about its next coach, given Carlo Ancelotti's now certain departure at the end of the season. According to Spanish media reports, not even winning La Liga and the Copa del Rey would convince Florentino Perez to renew his faith in the Italian coach. This is also because Los Blancos have already identified Xabi Alonso as Ancelotti's successor and intend to finalise the deal with the former midfielder fairly quickly. According to Marca, the goal is to have Xabi Alonso on the bench in June for the Club World Cup in the United States. If an agreement cannot be reached, it is possible that Santiago Solari or Raul will serve as interim coach in America.
