On Tuesday (30), Valverde did not enter the field in Real Madrid's victory over Kairat, in the 2nd round of the Champions League. According to journalist Javi Tintó, the Uruguayan had refused to play improvised at right-back due to the absence of Alexander-Arnold and Carvajal.

In addition to Valverde, Vini Jr also “challenges” Xabi Alonso by finding it difficult to adapt to the coach's new scheme. The player did not hide his dissatisfaction on the sidelines when he was substituted in the games against Espanyol and Kairat.
Rodrygo had also asked Xabi Alonso not to change his position, as Carlo Ancelotti did. The Brazilian prefers to play on the left side, although the number 11 has competition from Vini Jr in the sector. Still, the athlete gained an opportunity on his favorite side against Kairat and managed to perform well.

Xabi Alonso's start at Real Madrid
Xabi Alonso's start at Real Madrid has not been easy and has been marked by some controversies since the Club World Cup. Rodrygo's departure from the starting team with the change in formation and the preference for other young players, such as Arda Güler and Mastantuono, is a factor. In fact, the Brazilian was close to leaving in the last transfer window.
In addition to being eliminated with a 4-0 defeat to PSG in the Club World Cup, Real Madrid lost the lead in La Liga after a 5-2 defeat to Atlético de Madrid. Despite being 100% in the Champions League, the Whites have had a turbulent start to the season.
