Few managers in world soccer at present have a better inventory than Alonso, who in little greater than a yr has taken Leverkusen from second backside of the Bundesliga to the very high, masterminding a real problem for his or her first-ever league title this season.
They’re nonetheless unbeaten within the German high flight in 2023/24 and have dropped simply eight points out of 57 obtainable, placing them in with a agency probability of being the primary group aside from Bayern Munich to win the division since 2012.
Barring an inexplicable collapse or main in-house fallout, the 42-year-old seems to be set to be given the liberty to finish his time on the BayArena on his personal phrases, though anybody related to the membership should absolutely be praying that he stays put for the foreseeable future.
Carro’s obvious assertion that Leverkusen wouldn’t attempt to block Alonso from leaving if he needs to take action might supply encouragement from Liverpool if, as anticipated, Anfield chiefs pursue the previous Reds midfielder to take over from Klopp.
On present kind, the Spaniard is certain to have his decide of jobs at any time when he strikes on from the Bundesliga pace-setters. Let’s hope it’s LFC who can take advantage of convincing case to amass his companies when that point comes.
