Real Madrid is Undergoing Massive Changes!
Former Real Madrid striker and club director Predrag Mijatović is not holding back as he discusses the new Real Madrid team under the leadership of Xabi Alonso. Forget the old guard — Real is searching for a new era, and Mijatović claims that Croatian captain Luka Modrić will surprise us all with his future plans.
Modrić and Milan? Not Quite What You Think!
Although rumors swirl that Modrić is moving to Milan to stay in shape for the World Cup, Mijatović has a different prediction. He says Modrić might shock everyone by playing one more season before retiring. “He’s a machine, a real workhorse who sacrifices a lot for the game,” says Mijatović.
Xabi Alonso and Tactical Innovations
New Real Madrid coach Xabi Alonso is introducing a tactical system with three center-backs, bringing new options to the game. However, Mijatović notes that the midfield still lacks creativity and a bit more football flair. “Maybe we’ve been spoiled by Modrić and Kroos for ten years,” he adds, emphasizing that there is no new Modrić or Kroos on the market; instead, you have to find a player who brings something different.
Young Talents and the Club’s Future
In another related article, Mijatović praises young striker Gonzalo García, who scored three goals and provided one assist at the Club World Cup. He points out that Real has long neglected developing young players from their academy, but that is changing under Alonso’s leadership. García is the kind of player the whole world is looking for — a true goal scorer who knows how to find the net when it counts.
Real is Moving in the Right Direction
Mijatović is optimistic: “Real Madrid is heading in a very good direction. Xabi Alonso knows what he wants and isn’t afraid to impose his football philosophy. He knows the club well, both as a former player and now as a coach.”
Conclusion: End of an Era and Start of a New One?
Real Madrid is changing, Modrić might not have said his last word yet, and young players like García bring new energy. Will Xabi Alonso succeed in bringing Real back to the top of the world? One thing is certain — the football world will be watching their every move with great interest.
What do you think? Can Modrić still surprise us, or is it time for a new generation? Drop your thoughts and let the conversation roll!
