Former Ballon d’Or winner, Lothar Matthäus has identified the club Xavi Alonso will coach next season.
Alonso, who is the current manager of Bayer Leverkusen, has been linked with the likes of Liverpool, Real Madrid and Bayern Munich.
However, Matthaus believes Alonso will stay at the BayArena next season and continue coaching Bayer Leverkusen.
“His dream may be to one day coach Bayern, Liverpool or Real Madrid. But, in my opinion, he is not done at Leverkusen yet.
“Xabi is not someone who gets carried away by big names, he has celebrated too many successes as a player for that,” Matthaus said (as quoted by the Daily Mail).
“He, in addition, is not going to be guided by the economic aspect. What matters to him is what he has built and who he has built it with. He knows where he comes from and what he owes to others.
“That is why I don’t think he is going to sign for another club next season.”
Alonso is in the midst of an incredible campaign with Bayer Leverkusen, who are yet to suffer defeat since the season began last year.
His team have won 29 of their 33 matches across all competitions for Leverkusen.
