With Alonso as the Real Madrid's headcoach, and as a former player of Madrid, and a club which he has played for before, he's going to have great achievement and success with Madrid, considering his successful managerial record with Leverkusen.
I believe they have higher opportunity in this competition to lift this very trophy aside, PSG and Chelsea two current champions.
Real Madrid is very lucky to have a coach like Xavi Alonso come into their rescue, because they had a poor last season under Carlo Ancelotti. I do believe Alonso will get Madrid right back on track with his tactical system of play.
