It looks like Xabi Alonso is getting to work as new Chelsea manager already, with directors meeting him in Madrid yesterday.
Not much gets passed the guys at El Chiringuito TV, and they had cameras to capture Alonso walking around Madrid yesterday and they even managed to ask him a few questions.

But what they also managed to capture, was Chelsea’s directors also with Alonso in Madrid, and discission will start as to why they were all there.
I’d assume Alonso still lives in Madrid, and the Chelsea directors were out there having meetings with him around summer transfer plans. Because although Alonso does not officially start his role with Chelsea until July, they will all be wanting to make transfer plans from now on because that cannot wait and they need to get to work on it for the summer.

The video has been posted on X yesterday, but the Spanish TV channel manage to zoom in on Chelsea’s directors.
They say that Paul Winstanley, Sam Jewell and Joe Shields were apparently in Madrid with Xabi Alonso and his staff yesterday.
