Reports from Spain suggest that Xabi Alonso is ready to accept the managerial position at Real Madrid.
The former Real Madrid midfielder is reportedly waiting for the finalization of Carlo Ancelotti’s departure before completing his move to the Santiago Bernabéu.
With Ancelotti’s move to the Brazilian national team set for June, the exit process is expected to conclude soon, paving the way for Alonso’s return to the Spanish capital.
Meanwhile, Bayer Leverkusen are reportedly accelerating their search for a new head coach.
With the expectation that Xabi Alonso will be leaving, the Bundesliga club are keen to find a suitable replacement and are progressing with talks with potential candidates.
This indicates that Leverkusen are anticipating Alonso’s departure and are taking proactive steps to ensure a smooth transition for the club.
