Leverkusen manager can win Bundesliga title on SundaySpaniard’s team to host West Ham in Europa quarter-final
Xabi Alonso has refused to rule out managing in the Premier League in the future, despite disappointing Liverpool by committing his immediate future to Bayer Leverkusen.
Alonso, whose contract runs until 2026, is enjoying a stunning season with Leverkusen and could further enhance his reputation by clinching the Bundesliga title this weekend – an achievement that he insisted will not be on his side’s mind in their Europa League quarter-final first leg against West Ham on Thursday.
