Pérez Hands Xabi Alonso 3 Names to Replace Modrić ⚪Just before the final game of the season, Florentino Pérez pulled Xabi Alonso aside and said: “These are the 3 who can replace Luka. The choice is yours.” 😱😱 ⚪All eyes were on the list… one of them could dominate the Bernabéu for the next decade. Xabi already has a favorite, and it’s a name that will shock fans

In a stunning moment behind closed doors at Valdebebas, just 24 hours before Real Madrid’s final match of the season, club president Florentino Pérez reportedly pulled new head coach Xabi Alonso aside — and handed him a list that could shape the future of the club for the next decade.

“These are the three who can replace Luka. The choice is yours,” Pérez told Xabi, referring to the irreplaceable Luka Modrić, who is expected to depart the Santiago Bernabéu after 12 glittering years.

According to sources close to the club, the names on the list weren’t the ones most fans expected — no Jude Bellingham-type blockbuster or recycled Galáctico. Instead, it’s a shortlist built on Xabi Alonso’s vision of technical elegance, positional mastery, and future dominance.

The Madrid camp remained tight-lipped about the names, but insider whispers suggest one of them could be a shock choice fans won’t see coming — a player who’s flown under the radar but has already impressed Alonso during scouting meetings this season.

“Xabi already has a favorite,” one source revealed. “And it’s a name that’ll surprise a lot of people. He believes this player can dominate the Bernabéu midfield for the next decade.”

The official decision is expected to be announced after the season finale, with fans eagerly awaiting to see who will inherit Modrić’s legendary No. 10 role — and whether this bold new era under Xabi Alonso will start with a surprise midfield general at its heart.
