Jurgen Klopp will step down as Liverpool’s leader at the end of the season, and although there was widespread shock at the departure of the great general who led the team since October 2015, the focus of the conversation has shifted to his successor, with Xabi Alonso and other young leaders who are building their reputations in Europe.
The Spanish conductor, who has led Bayer Leverkusen since the middle of last season and has been a threat not only in the Bundesliga but also in European competitions this season, is a popular brand, and Liverpool is not the only club looking to sign him.
According to SPORT, Barcelona, whose coach Xavi is retiring at the end of the season, is looking at Xabi Alonso, the coach who created the golden era of the Spanish national team, and is dreaming of a few possibilities.
Other German coaches such as Jurgen Klopp, Hansi Flick, Thomas Tuchel, and Julian Nagelsmann are all on the list of candidates, and the coach, who played for Real Madrid, one of the biggest domestic rivals during his career, is also on the list and is said to be following the developments.
However, the chances of him taking charge at the Camp Nou are almost zero. It is said that the coach is giving priority to the club where he spent his playing days as his next move, and even if there were no other offers, a trip to Barcelona is not a possibility.
This may seem like a gossip article, but what is the truth?
