Real Madrid: Xabi Alonso ready to part ways with three players

Recently appointed as the head coach of Real Madrid and knocked out of the Club World Cup by PSG, Xabi Alonso is eager to reshape his squad for next season. And the club's leadership is ready to back him.

According to Spanish outlet Fichajes, the former midfielder wants to part company with Rodrygo, Brahim Diaz, and Dani Ceballos during this summer’s transfer window. It’s a bold move from the ex-Bayer Leverkusen manager, who clearly aims to mold the team in his own image.

However, the Rodrygo case is more complicated. According to Fabrizio Romano, the Brazilian will have a say in his future and the final decision will rest with him. The 24-year-old winger is already attracting plenty of interest from Premier League clubs. Madrid-based newspaper AS highlights strong interest from Arsenal, Liverpool, Manchester United, and Chelsea.

For Brahim Diaz and Ceballos, the outcome appears clearer: their future looks set to unfold away from the Bernabéu. A turbulent summer awaits in the Spanish capital, where Xabi Alonso is determined to usher in a new era.
