Xabi Alonso favorite to succeed him

After a first stint on the Real Madrid bench between 2013 and 2015, Carlo Ancelotti returned to the Spanish capital in 2021. In all, over his two stints, he won three Champions Leagues (2014, 2022 and 2024), two Ligas (2022 and 2024) and two Copas del Rey (2014 and 2023).

According to Onda Cero, Xabi Alonso is the favorite to succeed him. The former Real midfielder (43 years old) is under contract with Bayer Leverkusen until June 2026, but his work on the German club's bench makes him an extremely coveted coach. Seeing him return to Real, where he shone as a player between 2009 and 2014, would be a great story.
