Kylian Mbappé or Gonzalo Garcia, Xabi Alonso will have to decide
The first major challenge for Xabi Alonso will be to choose his starting XI against Borussia Dortmund. With the explosion of Gonzalo Garcia in this Club World Cup and the late return of Kylian Mbappé , who is ill, the Spanish coach will have to make a tough choice: strengthen the young Madrid player who is on a good run or bet on Mbappé who is not at 100% but remains a special player and capable of making the difference at any time. A complicated choice that will tell us more about Xabi Alonso's intentions, in the meantime Gonzalo Garcia will inevitably have playing time. He is following in the footsteps of Raul as AS explains , a player trained at Real who knew how to seize his chance and score when needed. We will see if he continues in the quarter-finals against BVB... unless the former Bayer Leverkusen coach opts for the captain of the French team.
Marc Casado is popular in the transfer window

This money could be used to recruit Nico Williams. The file is dragging on, and meanwhile, Bayern Munich is making progress; the German club has reportedly increased its offer for the Athletic Bilbao striker. To be continued...
Revolution stalls at Inter Milan
Inter Milan's revolution is underway, but it's taking time to get going. Since the slap in the face in the Champions League final against PSG, Inter has been going through a difficult time. A change of coach, tensions in the squad, player turnover—in short, the Italian runner-up is in the midst of a storm. The proof is in the puzzling future of Hakan Calhanoglu, which is still the subject of much discussion. He spoke to Lautaro Martinez on the phone to clarify the situation after their falling out, but his club is still considering selling him. The figure is said to be €30 million, with Calhanoglu particularly interested in Galatasaray. A very delicate start for Christian Chivu, who had hoped for a calmer atmosphere to launch his Milan adventure.
