European superpowers Real Madrid will name Xabi Alonso as the club's new manager when Carlo Ancelotti departs at the end of the 2023/24 season, Ghana Scores Net has learnt.

Ancelotti already has an agreement in place with Brazil to become the head coach of the Selecao at the end of the 2023/24 season and Real Madrid have already decided who will take charge of the club.

Initially, the club was considering three names - Raul Gonzales who is currently managing one of Real Madrid's youth sides, former player and manager Zidane and Alonso.

However, the club's hierarchy led by Florentino Perez has decided to appoint Alonso to lead the club and their new project.

Alonso has set a club record at Bayer Leverkusen where he is currently coach as he has become the first manager to win 11 straight games for the club and securing qualification to the knock stage of the UEFA Europa League with a 100 percent record.

His side is just 1 of 3 clubs with unbeaten records in any of Europe's major leagues alongside Bundesliga rivals Bayern Munich and OGC Nice.

Ghana Scores Net has learnt that Madrid have already sought his opinion on their transfer strategy for the 2024/25 season.
