Recently appointed as the head coach of Real Madrid and knocked out of the Club World Cup by PSG, Xabi Alonso is eager to reshape his squad for next season. And the club's leadership is ready to back him.

Gareth Bale is expecting “big changes” at Real Madrid, with more Rodrygo treatment being tipped as Xabi Alonso is not “scared to drop anyone”.

Real Madrid suffered a 4-0 thrashing against PSG in the semifinals of the Club World Cup on Wednesday at New Jersey's MetLife Stadium. It was a dominant performance from the Parisians as they took control of the game right from the start. For the fifth consecutive match, Rodrygo Goes didn't earn a start for Real Madrid.

Real Madrid boss Xabi Alonso says his Real Madrid side were better off with ‘different players’ after benching Arsenal target Rodrygo for a fifth game in a row.   The Brazil international’s future at the Spanish giants is looking increasingly bleak with the Gunners among the sides interested in signing him this summer.

Rodrygo's long-term future at Real Madrid remains uncertain after falling down the pecking order under new manager Xabi Alonso
