Latest LaLiga Update Released!
Xabi Alonso has made a promising start to his tenure with Real Madrid, despite a disappointing derby loss to Atlético Madrid. Taking charge towards the end of last season, Alonso prepared for the upcoming campaign during the Club World Cup, where Los Blancos were eliminated by PSG in the semi-finals. This experience allowed him to assess his squad as they aim to surpass Barcelona in LaLiga.
Real Madrid’s legacy in the Champions League is unmatched, holding the record with 15 titles. The eager fans, known as Madristas, are looking forward to the final in Budapest. Alonso’s season began on a high note with six straight wins in LaLiga, followed by a setback with a 5-2 defeat in the Madrid derby. Kylian Mbappé has also started strongly, netting 13 goals across all competitions. Now, let’s examine the key market value shifts in the latest LaLiga update.
