Courtois Defends Xabi Alonso

The goalkeeper of Real Madrid, Thibaut Courtois, addressed rumors about head coach Xabi Alonso's relationships with the team's players. On Wednesday, Real Madrid defeated Athletic Bilbao away, thanks to a brace from Kylian Mbappe and a goal by Eduardo Camavinga.

However, discussions about the atmosphere in the team's dressing room continue unabated. "Sometimes, relationships between the coach and players can worsen or improve.

But we have never felt there was an issue with Xabi within the team. There’s always buzz in the media, but the situation inside the team is completely different," Courtois said in an interview with Madrid Universal.

Currently, Real Madrid is in second place in the La Liga standings, trailing Barcelona by one point. Read “Zamin” on Telegram!
