Internal tension has surfaced in the Spanish football club "Real Madrid," and it has already reached the leadership level.
Idman.Biz reports that Xabi Alonso openly stated to the management in one of the recent meetings that "the players have excessive power" and "it is not possible to continue in this way." This was reported by "Cadena SER."
According to the source, the relationship between Xabi Alonso and the players has not been without problems from the beginning. Fabrizio Romano also confirms that an emotional and professional distance has arisen between the coach and the player group, and this has deepened over time.
In particular, the decision regarding Luka Modrić has caused serious discontent in the dressing room. The Croatian midfielder was ready to stay with the team and play another season under new terms. However, Xabi Alonso and the club management chose a different path, deciding to give preference to young players.
This decision was perceived as unfair and emotionally difficult by some leading players, and it is precisely this moment that is considered the main factor disrupting the internal balance.
As a result, at "Real Madrid," the issue is no longer just a sports plan, but has become a matter of the management model and who has a say in the dressing room. The direction in which the processes within the club will develop will become clearer in the coming weeks.
