He was supposed to revolutionize Real Madrid after a titleless season, but instead Xabi Alonso&#8217s experience at Spain&#8217s most emblazoned club lasted only six months. The former Bayer Leverkusen coach, in full conflict with the team’s stars, left Madrid in mid-January by terminating his contract. But there are those who believe that between the Basque coach and Real Madrid the last word has not yet been said.

L’former German national team member Sami Khedira, on the sidelines of an event, praised Alonso and said he is certain that soon the doors of Real Madrid will open again for him: “I am also quite sure that he will come back to coach Real Madrid, maybe in five or 10 years. Then he will be a different coach. Not necessarily better, but perhaps different, better equipped to handle the situation”.

Despite the failure at Madrid, Alonso remains one of the best coaches, according to Khedira: “I see him at the same level as Jose Mourinho, Pep Guardiola and Carlo Ancelotti . He has everything that makes for a top coach”, stressed the’former Stuttgart, Real Madrid and Juventus midfielder.

“What he achieved with Leverkusen was outstanding. If you look at the first four months, even there he had to struggle a lot – noted Khedira -. He missed some games, the results were not so good. It took time to implement his system. His style of play takes time, communication on the field, understanding by the players and trust”.

According to Khedira, Xabi Alonso made one mistake in Madrid: “Perhaps he focused too much on his style and not on what his best players needed. This is perhaps the most important point. Real Madrid is, of course, something special”.

But Khedira believes Alonso will learn from the’mistake and grow further as a coach. For the future, there is no shortage of rumors: “I believe he will soon be the coach of a top club. In Europe, in England or elsewhere. He will still win titles and championships”.
