Xabi Alonso's Madrid Misstep: Is Time Really Up?
A defeat to Manchester City in the Champions League may not be catastrophic for Real Madrid, but it has raised eyebrows about Xabi Alonso's tenure as head coach. The writing appears to be on the wall that Alonso's time is limited at the Bernabeu.
The Spaniard took over as interim boss last month and was tasked with guiding the team through a crucial Champions League campaign. However, their outing against Manchester City in mid-December ended in a 3-1 loss, raising questions about his ability to deliver results on the biggest stage.
While Alonso's methods may have been admirable, his track record in the Champions League has been inconsistent. The question now is whether he can turn things around and deliver success for the club. But with the pressure mounting and the team struggling to find consistency, it seems that time may be running out for Alonso at Real Madrid.
