Xabi Alonso has begun shaping his plans for his debut season as Real Madrid’s head coach, with a clear focus on integrating youth into the first-team setup. According to journalist José Luis Sánchez on El Chiringuito TV, Alonso has requested detailed scouting reports on standout talents from La Fábrica, the club’s youth academy, ahead of the upcoming Club World Cup.

Among the players capturing Alonso’s attention is Jesús Fortea. The young defender has impressed the Spanish manager, who is reportedly keen to meet with him personally to outline a potential role in the senior squad.

Fortea may be invited to join the first team during pre-season training. Should he perform well, he could earn a spot in the Club World Cup squad, where Alonso will require a deeper roster.

Another name under consideration is Jacobo Ramón, who made headlines with a stoppage-time winner on his La Liga debut against Mallorca. The goal has elevated Jacobo’s profile and positioned him as a strong candidate for Alonso’s long-term project.
