The star forgotten by Xabi Alonso

Brahim Diaz was once considered one of the important players in Real Madrid's squad but has gradually lost his position.

Brahim Diaz accepts a reserve role.

From a stable starting player, Brahim now has to compete fiercely with young talent Mastantuono. Up to now, Diaz has only started 2 matches, a number only half that of his younger Argentinean.

In fact, Brahim possesses many qualities that any coach would appreciate, including the ability to move flexibly in tight spaces, use both feet well, the ability to press relentlessly and the fighting spirit at all times.

In Real Madrid's star-studded squad, he may not be a mainstay, but he is a strategic player from the bench, ready to bring about a breakthrough in tense matches.

Xabi Alonso has repeatedly asserted that he needs “all the players” in the context of Real having to compete in many arenas, but that makes Brahim Diaz unhappy. There are matches where he has to sit on the bench almost the entire time without being given a chance. The lack of stability in playing time puts Brahim in a dilemma.

However, the road back is not completely closed for Brahim. He needs to maintain a professional attitude, train hard and take advantage of every small opportunity to make his mark, from a decisive shot, a sharp assist to aggressive pressing. Besides, the fact that Real Madrid is considering extending his contract beyond 2027 is also a signal that the club still believes in the long-term value he brings.
