Coach Xabi Alonso is expected to remain at Bayer Leverkusen for another season, according to information from the journalist Fabrizio Romano. The Spanish coach is going through a great phase at the German club and has had his name speculated about at major European clubs, such as Liverpool, Bayern Munich and Real Madrid, but the tendency is for him to continue the work he has done at the German club.
Despite the interest from European giants, Xabi believes that the best alternative is to remain at Bayer Leverkusen in 2024/25, in which the club has a great chance of returning to compete in the Champions League, as it leads the German Championship. Second Fabrizio Romanohe is already working on planning the following season and maintaining the stars of the cast, such as Florian Wirtz.
Bayer Leverkusen is undefeated this season and currently occupies first place in the German Championship, with 70 points from 26 games, ten more than second-placed Bayern Munich. Furthermore, the team is in the quarter-finals of the Europa League and the semi-finals of the German Cup.
After the announcement of the departures of Jurgen Klopp, from Liverpool, and Thomas Tuchel, from Bayern Munich, Xabi Alonso’s name gained momentum to replace them. There were also rumors about Real Madrid’s interest in the Spanish coach, but they cooled down after Carlo Ancelotti’s renewal.
Xabi Alonso, as a player, wore the shirts of these three clubs and had his name marked in the teams’ history. The former midfielder was even champion of the Champions League with Liverpool in 2005 and Real Madrid in 2014. At Bayern Munich, he won three national leagues in a row.
