Xabi Alonso may leave Bayer Leverkusen at the end of the season if Bayern Munich, Liverpool, or Real Madrid make an offer.
Despite Xabi Alonso agreeing to a contract extension until 2026, it was reported that Bayer Leverkusen are likely to lose the highly rated manager at the end of the season.
It was revealed that he has a clause in his contract. Real Madrid, who may be without Carlo Ancelotti at the end of the season, will be ready to pay a huge amount to tempt the Spanish manager away from the club.
Ancelotti’s contract ends in 2024, with rumors of him moving to coach the Brazil national team.
Ancelotti vividly wants Alonso to take over his Santiago Bernabeu seat when he leaves the club.
However, managing Liverpool and Bayern Munich may happen in the next two years due to the extension of the contracts of both Jurgen Klopp and Thomas Tuchel.
However, Thomas Tuchel’s situation may change if he fails to win a single title at the end of the season.
The Spanish manager may consider staying in Germany to gain more experience before thinking of going for a more difficult job.
Alonso is seen as one of the most sought after managers in Europe.
Since joining the club, they have won 26 matches and suffered 10 defeats out of 47 games in all competitions.
