Real Madrid wrap up year in front of cheering fans

Real Madrid fans attended an open training session on Tuesday (December 30) at the club's facilities ahead of the New Year, showing strong support for the team amid hopes for an improved campaign in 2026.

Supporters, some carrying signs showing their love for the players, cheered as goals were scored during the session. After training, players approached the stands to sign autographs and pose for photos with fans, who voiced their support of coach Xabi Alonso.

Real Madrid, currently second in the LaLiga standings on 42 points, trail leaders Barcelona by four points.

Alonso's side regained form in late 2025 with three consecutive wins across all competitions after losing their grip on first place in November with a run of three straight draws.
