Liverpool's management are already on the lookout for a successor

Bayer Leverkusen are in a position of stability regarding Xabi Alonso's continuity as coach for next season, despite the fact that clubs such as Liverpool and Bayern Munich have shown interest in the Spaniard, who is dreaming of winning the Bundesliga in his second year in the dugout.

Despite the rumours, Leverkusen remain calm and confident that Alonso will remain with them for next season. His influence extends to the formation of the squad for the 2024/2025 season, indicating a solid commitment from the Spanish coach to the Leverkusen project, which has regained competitiveness in record time after hovering around the relegation zone last year prior to the Spanish coach's arrival.

Leverkusen have Xabi Alonso as a fundamental part of their project, backed by a contract that runs until 2026, and it now remains to be seen whether he will honour it in full or decide to end his time in the Bundesliga and embark on a great adventure with the five-time European champion.

Xabi is the main option

Liverpool's management are already on the lookout for a successor, and one of the names that has emerged is that of Xabi Alonso, currently manager of Bayer Leverkusen. The Spanish coach has been doing an impressive job at the German side and has attracted the attention of several top clubs, including Bayern Munich and Real Madrid. Alonso, who is a Liverpool legend for his time as a player at the club, could be the perfect candidate to continue Klopp's legacy at Anfield.
