Real Madrid midfielder Xabi Alonso has admitted that "clans" exist in the Los Blancos dressing room, but he has said that the "egos" are well-managed by head coach Carlo Ancelotti.
The Spanish outfit have a number of big personalities in their squad, but came together on the field during the 2013-14 season as they picked up a Copa del Rey and Champions League double.
"In the dressing room there is so much spectacle, there are clans, but usually they have a good relationship with each other," Alonso told Canal+.
"The egos are managed well."
Alonso was suspended for Madrid's 4-1 win over Atletico Madrid in the final of the Champions League on Saturday evening.
