Of course, Real Madrid will come in a grand style next year better than ever, because they don't like to be intimated more than a season. The management is already closing the loop holes that led to their shameful end this season. TAA has been signed and Xabi Alonso will be the next successor to Ancelotti. We will see new sign ups from them before the next season starts.
Xabi Alonso is going to be the next manager of Madrid. Xabi is a good enough coach. A mediocre team like Leverkusen has dominated the Bundesliga with the help of Xabi Alonso. And that is why Madrid is interested in Xabi Alonso. However, the problem is that Xabi has very little experience on the Champions League platform. If you want to do well in the Champions League, you need an experienced coach. We have seen that Leverkusen did well in the Bundesliga, but this team failed to do well in the Champions League. Can we say with certainty that the same thing is not likely to happen with Madrid?
But you forget that the previous year Bayer Leverkusen reached the Europa League final, yes Xabi Alonso has little experience as a coach in the Champions League, but you have to take into account that Bayer Leverkusen do not have the champions that Real Madrid have in their squad.
I had however heard of Real Madrid's interest in Cesc Fabregas as the next coach of the blancos
