Confirmed after El Clásico, he is heading to Bayern Munich, Xabi Alonso gives the green light

The consequences of El Clásico are starting to take effect at Real Madrid

Real Madrid secured a valuable victory in El Clásico after defeating Barça 2-1 in an intense, fast-paced match. Xabi Alonso's team dominated the key moments of the game thanks to their ability to control play and capitalize on their chances. The victory strengthens the white team's position at the top of the table and leaves very positive feelings at Bernabéu.

In footballing terms, Real Madrid showed a very solid image. The line of attacking midfielders, formed by Arda Güler and Jude Bellingham, was decisive in making the difference. Both knew how to read the timing of the match, providing creativity, imbalance, and absolute control of the pace against a Barça that was outmatched by the white team's intensity.

Moreover, the Madrid double pivot was a true display. Xabi Alonso surprised everyone by starting Camavinga, who delivered a great performance. With the "6" and Tchouaméni keeping the balance, Real Madrid showed a version that invites optimism looking ahead to the future.

Xabi Alonso's conclusion after El Clásico: gift to Bayern Munich

However, beyond the joy of the victory, El Clásico also served for Xabi Alonso to draw important conclusions about his squad. The Donostia-born coach is delighted with the talent he has at his disposal, especially in the "10" area. That abundance of talent has led the white club to make a definitive decision regarding a great Juventus player.

We're talking about Kenan Yildiz, who had been linked with Real Madrid in the days leading up to El Clásico as a possible emergency signing for January. His progress in Serie A and his talent for playing in different attacking positions caught the attention of the white club. However, after analyzing the current options, Xabi Alonso has made it clear that his signing is not necessary.

As a result, Xabi Alonso has given his approval for Bayern Munich to move forward without competition in the signing of Kenan Yildiz. The German team has been following his development for months and believes he can become a key piece in their future project. For Bayern, Yildiz represents a strategic opportunity: a young player, with potential, and perfectly adapted to German soccer.

Kenan Yildiz doesn't fit in Real Madrid

At Real Madrid, the decision is understood as a show of trust in the current squad. With Bellingham, Arda, Mastantuono, Rodrygo, and Brahim in the rotation, the attacking area is more than covered. Kenan Yildiz is very good, but he doesn't have a place.

Meanwhile, Bayern Munich is preparing to finalize the signing of Kenan Yildiz in the coming weeks. The agreement with Juventus is only a matter of time, as the Turkish player would be delighted to join Allianz Arena. Meanwhile, Xabi Alonso will keep trusting the players he has at his disposal.
