Real Madrid head coach Xabi Alonso spoke to club TV after arriving in Florida ahead of their opening match at the FIFA Club World Cup against Al Hilal on Thursday.
Xabi Alonso said: "We are entering a new era and we must clarify our priorities. The most important thing is to figure out what kind of team we want to be and prove it against Al Hilal. We want to implement this concept immediately, starting with the game against Al Hilal. First of all, we have to be clear about ourselves."
“I think the first contact with the players was very positive and as time went on, I started to get to know them better and made key connections, which gradually led to more players getting involved.”
"Given the tight time schedule, we must speed up the pace, quickly get familiar with each other and complete the training. Today, Rune, Vinny and Arda have arrived, and we will start to form a complete lineup. Three training sessions are planned before the game. We came here with a strong desire, and we look forward to playing a wonderful game and persevering to the end."
