Xabi Alonso has garnered a lot of attention from top football clubs around the world, as he is now one of the most sought-after managers in the game. With his impressive performance as the manager of Bayer Leverkusen, it's no surprise that Bayern Munich and Liverpool are both vying for his services.
According to German football legend Lothar Matthaus, Bayern Munich is the more desirable option for Alonso between the two clubs. This comes as no surprise, as the team is currently fighting for the Bundesliga title and recently secured a dominant 3-0 win over Bayern Munich. Meanwhile, Liverpool is also in search of a new manager as Jurgen Klopp will be leaving his post at the end of the season.
With his successful career as a midfielder for both Bayern Munich and Liverpool, it's no wonder that both clubs are hopeful about bringing Alonso on board as their manager. However, Matthaus believes that taking over from the struggling Thomas Tuchel at Bayern would be a more rewarding challenge than following in the footsteps of the popular Klopp at Anfield.
Matthaus also hinted that the situation could become more complicated, as Bayern may not wait until the end of the season to part ways with Tuchel. The decision to let go of the former Chelsea boss in the summer seems like a sensible one for both parties, according to the 62-year-old legend. He believes that this could be a positive move for the team, but if things don't improve, an earlier separation may also be on the cards.
Meanwhile, Klopp is looking to end his tenure at Liverpool on a high note, and Alonso's potential arrival could add even more excitement to the team's prospects. In fact, the Liverpool boss named four standout players in their recent comeback win over Luton, highlighting the potential of the team under his guidance.
In the end, it remains to be seen where Alonso will end up, but for now, it seems like Bayern Munich may have the upper hand in securing his services. However, with both clubs determined to have him as their manager, it's sure to be an interesting battle for the Spanish icon's signature.
