Xabi Alonso’s Choice: Liverpool or Bayern Munich?
Xabi Alonso, the 42-year-old former Liverpool midfielder, is a wanted man after his impressive stint at Bayer Leverkusen. Reports in Germany suggest that Alonso’s preference would be to join Bayern Munich ahead of Liverpool this summer. Bayern Munich’s hierarchy have already made Alonso their top target to succeed Thomas Tuchel, who will be leaving the club at the end of the season.
Sky Germany reports that Alonso is leaning towards a move to Bayern, although it will be difficult to lure him away from Leverkusen as he is focused on winning the possible treble with the club. Despite Bayern’s interest, Liverpool has also enquired about Alonso in the last couple of days and weeks. However, it seems that Alonso is more willing to join Bayern Munich instead of Liverpool at this stage.
The German club acknowledges the difficulty of the possible transfer and all the Bayern bosses are informed about it. Alonso is not motivated to speak about Bayern Munich and is fully focused on Leverkusen. It remains to be seen if he will say ‘yes’ to Bayern, but for now, it seems like he is more inclined towards joining the German club.
With uncertainty surrounding Alonso’s future, fans are eagerly waiting to see where he will end up next season. Will he choose to return to Liverpool or opt for a new challenge at Bayern Munich? Only time will tell. Stay tuned for more updates on this developing story.
