Xabi Alonso will play with a different system at Real Madrid, the big star is expected to leave the club

Next season is expected to bring big changes to Real Madrid, as Xabi Alonso will take over the team after Carlo Ancelotti's departure.

Ancelotti will leave to take charge of the Brazil national team, while Alonso will officially take office on June 1, on the eve of the Club World Cup.

Under Alonso, Real Madrid is expected to change their tactical scheme, using a 5-3-2 or 4-4-2 formation that favors forwards Vinicius Jr. and Kylian Mbappe.

As a result, Rodrygo could lose his important role in the team. According to journalist Manu Carreno, the Brazilian striker is expected to leave in the summer due to the limited minutes he will have under the new management.

In addition to Rodrygo, Luka Modric and Lucas Vazquez are also expected to leave as their contracts expire this summer. The futures of Dani Ceballos and David Alaba remain uncertain.

Meanwhile, the club is focused on reinforcements, especially in defense. Names such as Alex Grimaldo, Alvaro Carreras, Dean Huijsen are on the wish list, while Trent Alexander-Arnold is already considered a new Real Madrid player.

Xabi Alonso's appointment is expected to become official soon, as Real Madrid prepares for a new era, with the reshaping of the squad already underway. /Telegraph/
