Speaking to reporters in the press conference ahead of Las Palmas game, Carlo Ancelotti addressed the rumours which claimed Xabi Alonso could succeed him as the next Real Madrid coach.
"I had him as a player. He has a high-level knowledge of football, he is doing very well with Bayer Leverkusen. I wish him to be here one day, like Raúl or Arbeloa. They are people I know and I love them very much. I hope one day they can be Real Madrid coaches."
The 64-year-old coach's current contract expires at the end of this season, and after that he is expected to move to Brazil to become their next manager.
