Club career

In 2008, he reached Real Madrid Castilla which competed in Segunda División B, and first appeared for the reserve team on 22 February 2008, playing the entire match in a 0–1 home loss against AD Alcorcón.
Alonso joined Bolton Wanderers of the Premier League for an undisclosed fee, on 27 July 2010. He made his competitive debut for the club in a League Cup1–0 away win against Southampton on 24 August; his first league appearance arrived on 1 January 2011, starting for suspended Paul Robinson in a 1–2 away loss to Liverpool at Anfield.
In May 2013, Alonso signed for Italian side ACF Fiorentina on a three-year deal, despite being offered a new contract by Bolton manager Dougie Freedman. On 30 December, after the player had made nine official appearances, Sunderland boss Gus Poyet announced that he would join on 1 January 2014, on loan until the end of the campaign.
On 30 August 2016, after 85 appearances and five goals overall with Fiorentina, Alonso completed his move back to England after signing a five-year contract with Chelsea worth around £24 million.

On 1 November, he scored his first Champions League goal in a 4–2 away win over Viktoria Plzeň. In March 2023, Alonso’s former teams Unión Adarve and Bolton Wanderers questioned the legality of this transfer and lodged complaints to FIFA over it.
They alleged that they were due compensation over the deal stating they were entitled to it as he was on their books before the age of 23 with FIFA’s rules stating that teams that had players before said age are given some of a transfer fee and that neither team had been given any money with them claiming that the Alonso deal was part of the £12 million deal for Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang and as such, they should be given some of that money
