Alonso and Ancelotti are two opposing extremes. Their positions are not only different in terms of young players, but also in style of playing. Alonso likes football controlled with great attack depth. He often uses three central defenders, allowing the full -backs to move forward.
And Ancelotti likes counterattacks and fixed players. Real seems to have a change in the game in the past year, which makes them unable to empty hands this season.
Alonso knows how important the young training system is to a club. He just praised Bayer Leverkusen’s youth team: “I am very proud of the U19 team and what they did last week before Mainz and this week before Shake to reach the semi -finals. We need to develop young players and train good players for the first team.”
The difference with Ancelotti is very clear. This coach is only reluctant to use young players even though Real Madrid is being injured by a storm. Even the excellent performance of Asencio teenagers could not make Ancelotti put him in the starting lineup. Carlo has been criticized many times for creating less opportunities for young players, which will definitely change under Alonso.
The fact that Alonso returned to Real as the coach was only a day or two. He asked President Florentino Perez to recruit 4 players, Alexander-Arnold, Zubimendi, Florian Wirtz and Jonathan Tah. These players have proven the possibility of becoming part of Alonso’s project in the future.
Alonso understood Wirtz and Tah, the players have been improved as one of the best players in their position. In particular, Wirtz has progressed that he is now one of the most talented players in Europe. Although signing a contract with him will not be simple, Alonso has considered this as a key player.
Meanwhile, TAH will be a simple transaction because this experienced center -back is in the last season of the contract and will not renew. It was a situation quite similar to Arnold, who officially signed the application to join Real yesterday after many months of negotiation.
