The head coach of Madrid's "Real" team, Xabi Alonso, shared his thoughts about midfielder Federico Valverde. This was reported by Euro-football.ru.
He focused on Valverde's goal-scoring ability and spoke about his role in the team. In an interview with journalists, Alonso recalled that Carlo Ancelotti, who previously managed "Real," was ready to revoke his coaching license on the condition that Valverde scored ten goals in a season.
However, Alonso stated that he is not yet ready to take such a step like his predecessor. He emphasized that he is just starting to test himself in this area and does not want to take such a risk.
According to Alonso, Valverde scores many goals, but he does not want to bet on it. This weekend, "Real" will play against Germany's "Borussia" Dortmund in the quarter-finals of the Club World Championship.
This match will be an important test for the team. Alonso expressed confidence that his team would perform well in this game and called for support for the players.
Valverde's contribution with his talent is considered significant for the team. His all-around performance is contributing to "Real's" success.
Although the coach acknowledged that there would be various challenges ahead for the team, he noted that they are ready for all of them. The team and coaching staff have big goals and are working tirelessly to achieve them.
