After a crushing 5-2 defeat in the Madrid derby against Atletico Madrid, Xabi Alonso and his team are preparing today for a new challenge: Real Madrid will face off against Villarreal, who are currently in good form, at the Bernabéu Stadium on Saturday evening, October 4.
However, after the 5-0 victory over Kairat in Kazakhstan, Uruguayan Valverde did not play a single minute with the team, fueling rumors of a personal rift between him and coach Xabi Alonso.
After all this news that indicated a lot of controversy about the existence of disagreements between the Spanish coach and his distinguished Uruguayan player, the Spanish coach quickly came out and told the press the opposite of these matters and that all this controversy is just rumors spread by the media.
Not a single player in the squad has told me he doesn’t want to play in a certain position. They are all ready to play wherever needed.
Alonso said.
