Real Madrid on Sunday confirmed Xabi Alonso will replace Carlo Ancelotti as their manager.
The ex-Spain midfielder, who won the Champions League with the LaLiga giants in 2014, has signed a three-year deal.
Earlier this month, Alonso revealed he would be departing Bayer Leverkusen at the end of the season.
Alonso will be introduced as manager at Madrids training ground on Monday.
He will be in charge of Los Blancos for the Club World Cup, with his first game against Saudi Arabian side Al-Hilal on June 18.
