It has always been so for long. Real Madrid or Barcelona will definitely win the league next season, but we can't tell for sure which of them is the favorite. Barcelona only added one or two players to their squad and the team bond is already there. Unlike, Madrid that has a new coach and needs to understand every player potential so that, he can use them at the appropriate time for the right wings and positions.
As for Barcelona, I think they will remain strong because their tactics and players are the same as last season, even though they have added one or two to their squad for next season. Meanwhile, Real Madrid still needs to make more changes to address their weaknesses. If they can't be strong in La Liga and the Champions League next season, their signings will be wasted. Although I'm confident that Alonso can improve Real Madrid as long as the current Real Madrid players feel comfortable with his tactics.
Based on my observations, I don't see any major problems at Real Madrid anymore. They simply need a good player to solidify their midfield and fill the void left by Kroos and Modric. If they can find such a quality midfielder, Real Madrid will have a better chance than Barcelona for the championship. We'll once again be watching two teams compete for the championship in Spain, and Atletico Madrid will do everything they can.
