Aurelien Tchouameni has stepped forward to defend manager Xabi Alonso at a time when Real Madrid are under heavy scrutiny. SoftFootball has already reported in detail on the team's recent slump, including Celta Vigo's first win over Real Madrid at the Bernabeu in nineteen years .
Against that backdrop, Tchouameni spoke with a calm but firm tone, insisting the players, not the manager, must answer for recent results. The midfielder made his position clear in a post shared by Fabrizio Romano on his official X account , saying the squad has a collective duty to fight for the coach and for each other.
