Bayer's head coach Xabi Alonso may stay on as head coach of the Leverkusen team, this is reported by journalist Fabrizio Romano on his social networks.
According to the journalist, the Spanish specialist is likely to continue working with the German team until the end of next season.
Recall, Alonso took charge of Bayer Leverkusen in 2022. After 26 rounds of Bundesliga this season, the team under the leadership of the Spanish specialist leads the standings with 70 points. Bayern Munich is in second place. The club has 60 points.
Note, earlier the media has repeatedly reported that Bayern is trying to persuade his former player to head the club. It was also reported that in recent weeks Alonso himself began to more seriously consider the option of going to the club from Munich.
Earlier, Bayer's CEO denied that the Spaniard would leave the club in the summer of 2024. It is rumored that Alonso will not leave the German team for as long as Italian Carlo Ancelotti is coaching Real Madrid.
