Barcelona striker Robert Lewandowski expressed confidence in Real Madrid's upcoming season under new coach Xabi Alonso. With prior experience playing alongside Alonso at Bayern Munich, Lewandowski has observed his development into coaching and believes his leadership will revitalize Madrid after a disappointing, trophyless year under Carlo Ancelotti. He acknowledges that Alonso's fresh perspective will challenge Barcelona's recent Clasico dominance, hinting that Madrid could become a formidable opponent next season. Alonso's first major task will be managing the Club World Cup while he adjusts to his role.
"I think that Xabi Alonso, for everything he has done at Real Madrid, is something that has no words... But Xabi Alonso is at the beginning of his journey as a coach."
"As a player I know Xabi very well. The two of us were always training together... But after a few years he is a coach of a great team in the world."
