Real Madrid are heading into the 2025-26 campaign with “excitement and enthusiasm”, so says Xabi Alonso.
Los Blancos will be desperate to make amends this term after a disappointing 2024-25 season, in which they went without a major trophy for the first time since 2020-21.
Following Barcelona’s domestic domination, with Hansi Flick steering his side to a domestic treble, 15-time European champions Madrid will be eager to bridge the gap and have strengthened this summer with the acquisitions of Dean Huijsen, Alvaro Carreras, Trent Alexander-Arnold, and Franco Mastantuono.
Madrid, who crashed out of this summer’s Club World Cup following a 4-0 semi-final loss to Paris Saint-Germain, go into the season under Alonso, who replaced Carlo Ancelotti in May.
Our squad for the match!
