Alonso 'not indispensable' for Madrid

Real Madrid coach Manuel Pellegrini is adamant the Spanish giants will cope if they cannot bring in Liverpool midfielder Xabi Alonso.

Although they have already spent close to £200m on Cristiano Ronaldo, Kaka, Karim Benzema and Raul Albiol this summer, Madrid are still looking to bring in more new faces and Alonso is near the top of their wanted list.
