Ancelotti warns Xabi Alonso about him and is halfway out of Real Madrid.

Antonio Pintus will have a completely different role at Real Madrid with the arrival of Xabi Alonso. The new coach wants to bring his entire coaching staff from Bayer Leverkusen to the Spanish capital. The Italian, who has an individual contract with the club, will not leave, but he will change roles, as he will not be part of the new technical staff.

"Real Madrid's plan for Pintus is for him to handle the physical preparation in the youth academy. Xabi Alonso will arrive with his own physical trainer, Ismael Camenforte, and his assistant Alberto Encinas", stated Ramón Álvarez de Mon on his X account. However, Antonio Pintus will also have to accept his new role at Castilla.

Real Madrid will have to change the methods

Things need to change if the goal is for Real Madrid to compete for all titles until the end next season. The priority will be to establish a clear playing style and work intensively on tactics so that each player on the team performs at the highest level. Physical preparation, sacrifice, and commitment on the field will also be key aspects.

Xabi Alonso fully trusts the project and the squad he will have at his disposal. In the coming weeks, he will begin planning the new season, always in close collaboration with the club, as is customary in the Madrid entity.

Antonio Pintus's role is under scrutiny

In fact, within the club, there is talk that the methods of Antonio Pintus and Carlo Ancelotti themselves might be somewhat outdated. Sources close to Real Madrid state that planning needs to change for the next season to achieve better objectives.

For now, the future of Antonio Pintus is in doubt, and Xabi Alonso, who will join the club, will bring his own staff. Florentino Pérez has not posed any problems in this regard and understands the requests of the Basque. The president wants results and understands that changes need to be made to achieve the objectives.
