Coach is on the rise in European football and is one of the most sought after names on the market

On the rise

Xabi Alonso ended his career in the 2016/2017 season, playing for Bayern Munich , one of the teams where he made history as a player.

He, who is also an idol of Real Madrid and Liverpool , returned to the football business to work as a coach and currently manages Bayer Leverkusen .

In fact, this season, the Spaniard has been doing well, being considered by many to be one of the best coaches in Europe , leading Bayer towards the Bundesliga title .

In total, the German team won 29 and drew four in 33 matches, being undefeated in all competitions they played this season.

Xabi Alonso could take over European giant

And, precisely because of this excellent performance, Xabi has been considered for the position of coach in several teams on the Old Continent.

One of them is Bayern Munich , who placed the Spaniard as their priority, even placing him above Zinedine Zidane on the list of priorities.

However, although he is willing to leave Bayer, the coach seems to prioritize an agreement with another European power: the powerful Real Madrid .

The information comes from journalist Christopher Michel , who places the Spanish team as Xabi’s big dream, who would even be willing to wait two years until Ancelotti leaves to take over the team.
