‘I don’t know’- Perfect Jurgen Klopp successor reveals future plans

Xabi Alonso makes future claim after Bundesliga triumph amid Liverpool links

Xabi Alonso and his recent success with Bayer Leverkusen, clinching their first-ever Bundesliga title, has undoubtedly put him in the spotlight as a managerial talent to watch. The former Liverpool and Bayern Munich midfielder has impressed with his tactical acumen and ability to galvanize his players, leading Leverkusen to an undefeated season so far.

Alonso’s achievements with Leverkusen have not gone unnoticed, with both Bayern Munich and Liverpool reportedly eyeing him as a potential candidate to take over their managerial reins. His ties to both clubs, having played pivotal roles in their respective histories, add an intriguing layer to the speculation surrounding his future.

However, despite the growing interest from Bayern and Liverpool, Alonso has reiterated his commitment to Leverkusen, at least for the time being. His recent comments following Leverkusen’s title triumph suggest a deep connection with his current team and a sense of satisfaction in achieving success with them.

Here is what Alonso had to say after the Bundesliga title triumph via The Mirror:

“When I feel that the team is behind me, the feeling that they want to believe, it’s much easier. That was my great enjoyment, that I had the feeling that the team was really committed, and once you have that it’s much easier. I don’t know what it will mean for the future, but at the moment it feels pretty great.”

Uncertain future?

These comments from Alonso indicate a manager who values the unity and commitment of his team above all else. His emphasis on the importance of team cohesion and belief reflects his leadership style, which has clearly resonated with Leverkusen’s players and contributed to their success.

While Alonso’s future remains uncertain, his impressive managerial debut has certainly put him on the radar of top clubs across Europe. What does it mean for the future though?

For Bayern Munich and Liverpool, who are both in the midst of managerial transitions, Alonso’s success at Leverkusen presents an enticing option. His experience as a player at both clubs and his burgeoning reputation as a manager make him a prime candidate to potentially lead either team in the future. Add Real Madrid to the mix as well.
