Alonso has signed a three-season contract until 2028 and will be officially presented this Monday at Real Madrid's training ground. This decision marks the return of the former Merengues player to the Santiago Bernabeu, but this time from the bench.
The first big challenge for the new coach will be to prepare the team for the FIFA Club World Cup to be played in the United States, with just two weeks of preparation left following his taking up of the role.
