Ardently courted by Liverpool and Bayern Munich in order to compensate for the respective departures of Jürgen Klopp and Thomas Tuchel, Xabi Alonso put an end to speculation about his future by announcing to the press his intention to continue the adventure with Bayer Leverkusen, on the way to win the first German championship title in its history. Asked about the Spaniard's announcement following Werkself's qualification for the German Cup final on Wednesday evening, Josip Stanišić revealed that he would have liked to continue working with the native of Tolosa but in Munich where he will return this summer at the end of his loan.

“Well, I'm glad he's happy here. Of course, it's a bit of a shame for me. I was hoping for a different result.”expressed the 24-year-old Croatian on the airwaves of Sport1 before discussing his experience at B04: “Looking back, it was the right step. The hope was to get playing time and progress. In the first half of the season it was tough, I was often dissatisfied. But in the end, it's a question of the team, which has improved enormously. For me it's good to have left Bayern and to be able to become champion here. I'm just enjoying it. »
