Real Sociedad B coach Xabi Alonso has ducked questions about taking charge of Real Madrid.

Zinedine Zidane's exit has seen the former Real Madrid midfielder - as well as Raul Gonzalez, Mauricio Pochettino and Antonio Conte - linked with an arrival at Valdebebas, but he's happy where he is for now.

"I want to do things at my own pace and to follow my own path," Alonso told Informe+.

"I'm at Sanse now, and that's where I want to be.

"It's the best place for me. I'm lucky that I spend a lot of time with my players, we have a very open relationship."
