Direct Question: Alonso Responds to Query on Job Security After Real Madrid Loss

Following Real Madrid's disappointing 0-2 home defeat to Celta Vigo—which marked just one win in their last five matches—manager Xabi Alonso faced direct questions about his future during the post-match press conference.

A journalist asked if the upcoming Champions League match against Manchester City would be decisive for his job security. Alonso sidestepped the personal angle, focusing instead on the team's immediate competitive goals.

He emphasized that the match is crucial because it concerns three points in the Champions League, a competition where Real Madrid's standing is currently favorable, and they intend to fight for the win. More broadly, Alonso stressed the importance of the team's performance, stating they are determined to play a great match and prove they are capable of playing much better than they did against Celta Vigo. He affirmed that this need for improvement is clearly understood within the squad.
