The change of coach at Real continues to be hotly debated. The professional rejects reports of a weakened relationship between Jude Bellingham and Xabi Alonso.

After the coaching change at Real Madrid, Jude Bellingham publicly defended himself against media reports that said he had a bad relationship with Xabi Alonso.

In his app “JB5”, the England international chose clear words: “So far I’ve let too much of it slip, always hoping that the truth will come out in its own time. But honestly… what a load of shit.”

The post refers to reports that claim Bellingham did not believe in Alonso’s tactics and had a strained relationship with him. In another post on Instagram, Bellingham thanked Alonso and wished him all the best for the future.

Alonso and Real Madrid parted ways after a good six months at the Royals. The club and coach remained silent about the reasons.
