As: Alonso started coaching in 2018 and spent 7 years to become Real Madrid coach

On May 11, when Xavi Alonso was about to take over Real Madrid, "As" published an article reviewing the young coach's coaching career.

The article of Ass reads:

Xavi Alonso completed a cycle in just seven years, from coaching Real Madrid's junior team to coaching Real Madrid's first team. As a representative of a generation of outstanding players, Alonso participated in coaching courses with Raul, Xavi, Victor Valdes, Baptista and Capdvilla. He started his coaching career in the summer of 2018 when he took over Real Madrid's U14 team.

Alonso's coaching experience at Real Madrid's youth training camp is short, but it is excellent. He only coached there for one season. Real Madrid U14 won the league championship with a landslide that season, with a specific record of 25 wins and 1 draw, and has never lost any game, and has averaged more than 6 goals per game. Among the Real Madrid U14 team Alonso has led, some players' names have begun to become well-known, including Jacob Ramon, Herme Andres, Hugo de Gianos, Eusse and Alejandro Gimenes, who now plays for AC Milan.

In the summer of 2019, Alonso returned to his other "home", namely Real Sociedad Club. In the 2019-2020 season, Real Sociedad B team he coached ranked fifth in the league, and in the following season (referring to the 2020-2021 season), he led the team to the Spanish Second Division, which was the second-tier Real Sociedad B team back to Spain after sixty years. During his three years as a coach at Real Sociedad B, Alonso has trained rookies like Zubimendi, Joan Pacheco and Benia Turientes.

In October 2022, Leverkusen from the Bundesliga handed over the second-last team at that time to Alonso (this is Alonso's first coaching a club's first team), and he led the team to sixth place and almost reached the final of the UEFA Cup that season. In the 2023-2024 season, Alonso led Leverkusen to break Bayern's dominance and win the Bundesliga and German Cup championships. At the beginning of the season, Alonso also led Leverkusen to win the German Super Cup. This is an unprecedented series of victories for a club that previously won only the 1988 European Cup and the 1993 German Cup.
