According to TEAMtalk, progress has been made on that topic, with positive talks between Liverpool and the Spanish conductor having been conducted. They also report that a three-year contract has been offered to the 42-year-old former Spanish midfielder.
The Englishman is said to be interested in joining Liverpool, while Bayern Munich is said to be in the lead from Germany, and although information is mixed, at the moment he is concentrating on leading Leverkusen, where he is doing well.
