After announcing his departure from Liverpool at the end of the season, Jürgen Klopp named his favorite to take over on the Reds bench.
After nine years of good and loyal service, Jürgen Klopp will leave his position as Liverpool coach at the end of the season. Since the announcement made by the German technician himself, there has been excitement on the banks of the Mersey where a worthy successor has been sought for the former Dortmund strategist. The main person concerned has a clear opinion on the question.
“ Xabi does an incredible jobJürgen Klopp blows in front of the English press at the mention of Xabi Alonso. He’s a former world-class player, from a coaching family too – which helps a bit – and he was already like a coach when he was playing. The football he plays with Bayer, the transfers he has made, it is absolutely exceptional. I played in the Bundesliga for a long time and it’s super impressive. (…) Leverkusen were clearly the better team in the last match against Bayern (3-0) and that is rare. »
Bayer’s season
Admiring his Spanish counterpart, who played five seasons with the Reds between 2004 and 2009, Jürgen Klopp predicts a radiant end to the year: “ He has superb recruits, exactly what he needed, and the work accomplished is remarkable. Leverkusen, who are Bundesliga leaders, also have a very good chance of winning the German Cup. And when you look at the Europa League, they are one of the favorites too! »
Three weeks ago, after the German coach revealed his future, Xavi Alonso reacted as follows to the rumor sending him to Liverpool next season: “ Can I say that I will not be Liverpool manager next season? Honestly… I don’t have a direct answer to give today… I’m happy here at the moment, it’s a great adventure and all I can think about is Leverkusen. I don’t think about the next step, I’m in the right place and I’m enjoying it. That’s all I can say. What will happen in the future, I don’t know. »
