Florentino Perez and Xabi Alonso survived with a plan to replace Luka Modric's departure

Real Madrid are now entering a new era after the Carlo Ancelotti era, with the arrival of Xabi Alonso from Bayern Leverkusen, there will be a lot of changes at the team level and at the technical level as well.

One of the questions Real Madrid fans want answered is the position of Luka Modric and who will replace him after he leaves after the Club World Cup in America next month.

Real Madrid trust Arda Guler for this position!

According to press reports, this option has been growing in confidence at Real Madrid for several weeks, with the Turkish youngster being the rightful heir to Luka Modric's position with the team, and it seems that the player will receive a lot of trust from the next coaching staff to take on big responsibilities.

Now with the arrival of Xabi Alonso and his new coaching team, this will be even clearer, because the Spanish coach's technical team knows the player's technical abilities, as well as his tactical intelligence.

While Carlo Ancelotti found it difficult to integrate the young Turkish talent into a star-studded lineup, Xabi Alonso views Arda Guler not just as a long-term prospect but as an immediate contributor.

Guler’s first season was marred by injuries and sparse minutes, yet he still displayed flashes of his potential. Now, with Luka Modric’s departure and a manager known for nurturing young players at the helm, the conditions are ideal for Guler to step into the spotlight.

Alonso’s arrival signals a shift in Guler’s prospects—where he was once sidelined, he is now expected to play a much more prominent role. This could be the turning point in the youngster’s career, offering him the consistent playing time he needs to flourish.
