Alonso has signed a three-year contract with Real Madrid, and he will bring most of his coaching team from Bayer Leverkusen to the club. This decision shows confidence in Alonso's ability to lead the team and implement his style of play, which has been successful with Bayer Leverkusen.

Real Madrid president Florentino Perez has given Alonso the freedom to choose his own staff, allowing him to build a team that suits his coaching style.

The agreement is a significant move for Real Madrid, as Alonso's appointment demonstrates the club's commitment to bringing in a new perspective and approach to the team.
