Europe is in chaos tonight after a bombshell report from Fabrizio Romano sent shockwaves through the football world — Xabi Alonso has just handed the Real Madrid board his most ambitious transfer request yet. Following a heartbreaking Champions League night at Anfield, the Spanish tactician has reportedly demanded the signing of four midfielders to completely reshape the heart of Los Blancos — and two of them are none other than Liverpool’s biggest stars.

According to Romano, Alonso made the request directly to president Florentino Pérez within 24 hours of Madrid’s dramatic UCL defeat. “This isn’t reactionary,” a source close to the manager told Spanish outlet AS. “It’s revolution. Xabi saw weaknesses, and he’s done analyzing — he’s acting.”

The list of targets, which has now leaked online, reads like a dream — or a nightmare, depending on which club you support. The Liverpool duo? Reportedly Alexis Mac Allister and Dominik Szoboszlai, two of Arne Slot’s most trusted lieutenants before his departure. Both players impressed Alonso during their recent clashes, showing the kind of pressing intelligence, passing precision, and tactical discipline he craves for his evolving Real Madrid system.

Sources say Alonso was particularly struck by Mac Allister’s ability to dictate tempo under pressure and Szoboszlai’s explosiveness in transition — qualities he believes Real Madrid desperately need after being overrun in midfield during the second leg at Anfield. “He wants energy, leadership, and control — he thinks these two can give him all three,” one insider revealed.

But that’s not all. In what’s being described as a “continental coup,” Alonso has also requested the signing of one Chelsea target, a player long on Madrid’s radar: Khephren Thuram, the French dynamo from OGC Nice. Thuram’s name has been linked to several Premier League giants in recent months, but it appears Madrid now plan to hijack that race entirely.

“He’s young, strong, and fearless,” a Madrid scout reportedly said. “Alonso sees him as the perfect long-term partner for Jude Bellingham.”

The fourth name, though, is what truly sent fans into meltdown — Joshua Kimmich. Yes, the Bayern Munich general and Alonso’s former teammate has been quietly approached through intermediaries. Reports suggest Alonso personally reached out to Kimmich to gauge his interest, and the German maestro didn’t rule it out. “If anyone could convince Kimmich to leave Bayern, it’s Xabi Alonso,” an insider told Marca. “They share the same football brain.”

The plan, insiders say, is radical but calculated. Alonso reportedly wants to phase out Madrid’s aging core — with Luka Modrić and Toni Kroos nearing retirement — and build a completely new midfield dynasty centered around energy, tactical flexibility, and controlled chaos. “This isn’t evolution,” one club official admitted. “This is a rebuild worthy of a manager who sees the game like a grandmaster.”

Social media has erupted in disbelief and excitement. “Mac Allister and Kimmich in one team? That’s cheating,” one fan tweeted. Another joked, “Liverpool fans better lock their doors — Florentino Pérez is coming.”

Meanwhile, Liverpool supporters are furious. Losing two midfield pillars in one window would be devastating, especially with Klopp gone and a rebuild already underway. “If Alonso pulls this off, he’s officially a villain at Anfield,” wrote one Liverpool fan forum. Others, however, can’t help but admire the boldness — “That’s what great managers do,” one comment read. “They don’t react, they reinvent.”

At Real Madrid’s training ground, the mood is reportedly mixed. Some veterans have been unsettled by the rumors, fearing that Alonso’s masterplan means their time is up. Yet younger stars like Bellingham and Camavinga are said to be thrilled at the idea of a new midfield era built on intensity and intelligence. “We need that energy,” one player told Spanish reporters. “It’s what we lacked at Anfield.”

As of tonight, negotiations are said to be in the “early but serious” stages, with Pérez fully backing his manager’s vision. Real Madrid’s transfer committee has reportedly allocated a record-breaking war chest to support Alonso’s blueprint, one that could exceed €300 million. “Florentino knows this is about more than signings,” a club insider said. “It’s about the future. It’s about ensuring Madrid dominates the next decade.”

If Alonso pulls off this four-man midfield revolution, it could go down as one of the boldest rebuilds in modern football — a move that redefines Real Madrid’s identity for years to come. From heartbreak at Anfield to plotting a European takeover, Xabi Alonso is proving he’s not just a manager — he’s an architect of dynasties.

And as fans across Europe brace themselves for a summer of chaos, one truth is already clear: the Xabi Alonso era at Real Madrid has only just begun — and no one is safe.
