Head coach of the Brazil football national team, Carlo Ancelotti, has backed Real Madrid manager Xabi Alonso to succeed at the club.
Recall that Alonso replaced Ancelotti as Real Madrid’s new manager some months ago.
Alonso has so far led the Los Blancos to maintain the top position on the LaLiga table this season.
Speaking about Alonso, Ancelotti told Spanish Journalist Tomás Roncero that the Spaniard will do well at Santiago Bernabeu.
“Xabi, yes – absolutely. I also had him at Bayern. A player with great vision. I was convinced he’d do well… and he is doing brilliantly,” Ancelotti said via AS.
“Obviously, yes. I see a solid team – especially at the back – and very effective up front.
“Mbappé is doing great, and Bellingham is back. I think Xabi can succeed without any problem.”
Ancelotti coached Alonso during their time together at Bayern Munich in the past.
