This project involves appointing Xabi Alonso as Real Madrid’s coach, a move that comes as a result of his personal efforts and perseverance, which have qualified him for this task. All indications suggest that he could take over the team next summer.

Alonso, who has already started thinking about his future, aims to define Real Madrid’s identity by then. In this context, he has made an unconventional request to Florentino Pérez, expressing his desire to sign a “dark horse” from La Liga for 2025, a player who could be a big surprise in the future.

The current Bayer Leverkusen coach is highly regarded within the club, and many believe he will join Real Madrid in the near future. Despite their satisfaction with Carletto’s performance, the club’s management continues to plan for the future and consider his possible successor.

In the latest developments, some media outlets have revealed Alonso’s first request should he take over as coach. This request involves signing Martín Zubimendi, a Real Sociedad player who has long been a target for Real Madrid.

Zubimendi is a talented midfielder for Real Sociedad and has recently caught the attention of Real Madrid due to his immense potential. His release clause is set at €60 million, which many consider reasonable given his level of play. This makes it possible for Real Madrid to make a serious move for him.

Moreover, the strong relationship between Real Madrid and Real Sociedad could facilitate negotiations, increasing the chances of Zubimendi making a move to the Bernabéu in the near future.

Real Madrid’s midfield has been slightly weakened by the departure of Toni Kroos, a key figure in Ancelotti’s plans. As a result, some within the club believe that Zubimendi could be the ideal replacement for the German, with the Spaniard showing great form this season. Things are moving toward crystallization, and nothing can be ruled out at the moment regarding his potential transfer to Real Madrid.
