Athletic Club has addressed the situation surrounding Real Madrid head coach Xabi Alonso on social media. Real Madrid defeated Alaves 2-1 in the last match of the Spanish championship.
It is noted that despite the victory against Alaves, there is still great tension surrounding Alonso's position, and serious doubts about his project remain at various levels, including the board of directors.
A defeat in the Copa del Rey on Wednesday could be disastrous and could certainly lead to a drastic decision, but the club's stance remains unchanged from last week. Madrid would prefer to keep him for as long as results allow, but there is almost no room for error.
Alonso has been leading Real Madrid since 2025.
