Bayern Munich is also interested in Xabi Alonso

Munich, Beritasatu.com – German giant club Bayern Munich is apparently also attracted to Liverpool legend Xabi Alonso. Munich is reportedly considering the name of Xabi Alonso, who is currently managing Bayer Leverkusen, to become their new coach.

The Bavarian club is reportedly planning to fire the current coach, Thomas Tuchel. This German coach experienced difficulties handling Munich at the start of his career. Munich is currently in second place in the Bundesliga standings with 50 points, five points adrift of leaders Bayer Leverkusen.

Club officials' disappointment with Tuchel also cannot be separated from the 0-1 defeat when they visited Lazio's headquarters in the first leg of the last 16 of the Champions League.

The Times reports Munich may sensationally recruit Xabi Alonso. Moreover, the Spanish coach is not a foreign figure at the Allianz Arena. Alonso once played for Munich under Pep Guardiola.

Previously, Liverpool, the club that Alonso once played for, was also widely rumored to be recruiting him. Alonso's name has been included as a candidate to replace Jurgen Klopp, who has decided to leave Anfield at the end of this season.
