Liverpool target Xabi Alonso tipped to take over the reigns at Bayern Munich next summer
Xabi Alonso’s managerial prowess at Bayer Leverkusen has not gone unnoticed, with his unbeaten run further fueling speculation about his future. The former Liverpool midfielder now stands faced with a trio of enticing options from his playing days in Real Madrid, Liverpool, and Bayern Munich.
Real Madrid, currently managed by Carlo Ancelotti, is uncertain about the Italian’s future beyond the upcoming summer. Meanwhile, Liverpool, under the successful tenure of Jurgen Klopp contracted until 2026, stands as a testament to stability in the dugout. Lastly, Bayern Munich, with Thomas Tuchel at the helm eye Alonso for the top spot next summer.
Alonso’s managerial journey at Bayer Leverkusen, where he is under contract until 2026, presents an intriguing scenario. While Liverpool remain content with Klopp’s extended contract, the allure of Alonso returning to Anfield has crossed the minds of many Reds supporters. However, with Leverkusen holding the reins until 2026, the transition to a new manager might not be as seamless as some would hope.
According to El Chiringuito TV via ECHO, Bayern want Alonso to take over from Thomas Tuchel next summer. Real Madrid offer another enticing possibility. The uncertainty surrounding Ancelotti’s future provides a potential opening for the former Spanish midfielder to make a managerial mark at the Santiago Bernabeu.
Xabi to the Reds?
On the other hand, Bayern Munich, although recently appointing Tuchel, are considering Alonso for the top managerial position next summer. The allure of leading the Bavarian giants could prove tempting for the former midfielder.
For Liverpool fans, the prospect of Alonso returning as the manager is undoubtedly appealing. However, the existing managerial stability under Klopp and Alonso’s contractual obligations at Bayer Leverkusen pose considerable hurdles.
Regardless of the outcome, the rise of Xabi Alonso as a sought-after manager reflects the impact and influence he continues to wield in the footballing world.
