Real has achieved only two victories in its last eight matches, and suffered two consecutive defeats at its home ground, the “Santiago Bernabéu,” in a few days, the first against Celta Vigo in the league, and the second against Manchester City in the Champions League.
The Spanish newspaper “AS” mentioned that the team’s trip to Saudi Arabia next January to participate in the Spanish Super Cup would have determined “Alonso’s” fate, but it seems that the Real Madrid management has decided to speed up the decision, and the coach’s future will be determined based on the team’s results in the next three matches against Alaves and Sevilla in the league, and Talavera in the Copa del Rey.
The newspaper added that Real’s performance witnessed a relative improvement against Manchester City, and that the players showed full support for the coach in their statements after the match.
It also stated: “But the results remain the most important criterion in football, and the angry reaction of Real Madrid fans in the Bernabéu stands after the loss cannot be ignored.”
“AS” concluded its report by saying: “The message that the Real Madrid management continues to direct is patience, but within limits, and the team will be required to stop the bleeding of defeats during its last three matches in 2025.”
It is worth noting that Real Madrid lost the lead in the Spanish League, which is currently held by Barcelona, the title holder, after 15 rounds, as a result of the decline in results.
