Real Madrid, January bid changes Bayern Munich plans
Xabi Alonso must run for cover before it’s too late but needs a graft in defense
In this start of the season, the lack of a reliable defensive leader is evident
Real Madrid has decided that it will try to buy Marc Guehi in the winter soccer market session
The Englishman's contract with Crystal Palace is expiring and he has no intention to renew
Different clubs are monitoring him to sign him in the summer but the Blancos could anticipate everyone
The'possible purchase of Guehi by Real Madrid could change Bayern Munich’s plans
Between the Blancos’ targets there'is also Dayot Upamecano, whose contract expires with the Bavarian club
If Real Madrid buys Guehi, it would greatly increase Dayot Upamecano’s chances of renewal
So far, negotiations between the Bavarians and French have produced no agreement
The player’s demands are considered too high by Bayern Munich management
But it is not to be ruled out that a middle agreement will be found that can please everyone

Coudet is banking on Boyé in attack, with Carlos Vicente, Ibanez and Aleña in the three-quarter. Midfield dike formed by Blanco and Suarez, while the defense will be headed by the Tenaglia-Pacheco pair. Between the posts Sivera.

Total emergency in defense for Xabi Alonso forced to deploy young Valdepeñas on the right flank, with Valverde on the opposite flank. In midfield Ceballos alongside Tchouameni, with Rodrygo and Bellingham on the outsides. In attack, Mbappé is back, alongside Vinicius.

Probable lineups

Alaves (4-2-3-1): Sivera; Otto, Tenaglia, Pacheco, Parada; Blanco, Denis Suarez; Carlos Vicente, Ibañez, Aleña; Boyé. Coach: Coudet.

Real Madrid (4-4-2): Courtois; Valverde, Asencio, Huijsen, Valdepeñas; Rodrygo, Tchouameni, Ceballos, Bellingham; Mbappé, Vinicius. Coach: Xabi Alonso
