👀The reason? Xabi Alonso’s clashes with Real Madrid stars

Just minutes ago, Real Madrid unexpectedly announced the departure of Xabi Alonso following the defeat in the Spanish Super Cup final against Barcelona. Although a clear reason for his departure has not yet been given, during his short period as coach of the Merengue club, we have observed several clashes with his players.

Back and forth with several key players

The "lid was blown off" after leaked arguments with Vinicius, following his substitution during El Clásico in La Liga. Besides him, Rodrygo also had a rough start to the season due to his lack of playing time. It was even mentioned that he could leave the club.

On the other hand, Federico Valverde has made it clear he is unhappy playing as a right-back, just as several other players have expressed their discontent with the intensity and demands in every training session.

The last episode with Mbappé

The last image of the Tolosarra as team leader was when he instructed his entire team to form a guard of honor for Barça. Immediately, Mbappé intervened in his decision and led his teammates away, making the two clear stances between the squad and him obvious.

Since the summer, it was reported that Xabi wanted new signings, but the club was satisfied with the squad, and for that reason, he never seemed completely content.
