Xabi Alonso is perhaps the most sought-after manager in European football at the moment. Two clubs are reportedly in the market for the Spaniard: Liverpool and Bayern Munich. If we Foot Mercato may be believed, Alonso prefers the English top team.
Santi Aouna, journalist at the French medium, reports to X with an update on the future plans of the success coach of Bayer Leverkusen. “Liverpool has held new talks with Xabi Alonso.”
“The manager would like to take the step the Reds and so Liverpool keeps trying,” Aouna continues. “Bayern Munich is also an option, but Xabi Alonso feels more about Liverpool and the Premier League.”
It should come as no surprise that both Liverpool and Bayern end up with the coach of the Bundesliga leader. Alonso is internationally renowned for his achievements with Leverkusen and is also a former player of both top clubs.
At Liverpool, Alonso must become Jürgen Klopp's successor. The German coach announced at the end of January through a video on his employer's social media channels that he would be leaving after this season.
If Alonso chooses to move to Bavaria, he will become Thomas Tuchel's successor at Bayern. The latter has been employed for less than a year der Rekordmeister, but he and his employer recently announced that the collaboration will end after this season. The disappointing performance in the Bundesliga is the reason for this.
In addition, Tuchel is said to be in conflict with some Bayern players. According to information from BILD Matthijs de Ligt, Joshua Kimmich and Leon Goretzka, among others, have finished with the trainer.
