Barcelona star believes that Xabi Alonso will make Real Madrid “dangerous”

Barcelona striker Robert Lewandowski believes that Real Madrid will be “dangerous” next season under the leadership of its new Xabi Alonso.

Lewandowski played with Alonso in Bayern Munich and knows that he will one day move from one player to another.

After following his progress in Bayer Leverkusen, Lewandowski believes that the Spaniard will turn Madrid’s fortunes after a season without the cup under the leadership of Carlo Ancelotti that was now implemented.

“I think Xabi Alonso, for everything he did at Real Madrid, is something that has no words, because he won the Champions League several times. But Xabi Alonso at the beginning of his journey as a coach. From the beginning, he will attend new blood.

Can Barcelona maintain the dominance of Clasico?

Madrid lost all the four Clasicus with Barcelona last season, as Hansi Felk won the league and a double cup.

But Poland International Lewandowski says the level of domination can now challenge.

“As a player, I know that Xabi is very good. The two were always training together. I knew that Xabi would one day be a coach. Initially, of course, in a more modest team. But after a few years, he was coach of a great team in the world.

“I think for Real Madrid, he is a good coach who can help this team. Maybe he needs a little time, but he is preparing for this club as a coach.”

Alonso’s first mission will be to lead Madrid at the club’s World Cup, which begins next week in the United States.

The absence of the club’s World Cup can be blessed

Barcelona is not involved, but Lewandowski believes this may eventually end until it is positive.

“I don’t think it would be good for our competitors because they will not have enough comfort and then they will not have time for the situation,” he said. “Over the course of the season, there is a moment when you stumble, and this is normal. I think that if we do not have that moment of retreating and benefiting from them to win games and points, this may be very good.

“We must be ready for this moment when another team decreases and we win, and I think it is a situation that can happen. I am sure we will prepare well.”

Lewandowski is blowing

The key to maintaining their superiority will be the shape of the teenage star Lamine Yamal.

The wing in Spain is still 17, but he is among the candidates to win Ballon D’or due to a series of impressive offers.

Lowandowski at the other end of his career but was detonated due to the young man’s effect.

He said: “I remember when Lamine came for the first time to train with us.

“He is also a player who also has a very mature head (on his shoulders). He does not act as he was 17 years old. He also shows great maturity in the tactics and things we are talking about in the field.

“I think Lamine has great talent and I think he is 23 or 24 years old. I think he is in the past three months, playing at a very high level. If you have a player like Lamine, he can do a lot of things with the ball, the team becomes very dangerous in the offensive side.

“If he wants to work, not only a year or two, I am talking about five, six or seven years, he can play at the highest level for a long time and can win many titles.”
