Bayer Leverkusen manager, Xabi Alonso should wait for Real Madrid vacancy and reject Liverpool’s offer to replace Jurgen Klopp, Reiner Calmund has said. He recently had his say while speaking to the press, and fans have been reacting.
According to him, even if both Bayern Munich and Liverpool are extremely interesting employers, it might be better for Xabi to wait till the Real Madrid job is also available before deciding.

Calmund added that he would prefer Alonso to stay in Leverkusen for another year or two and then replace Ancelotti.
His words, “I don’t think Alonso would do that. Of course this is a good option. Alonso won the Champions League with Liverpool and he won the championship three times with Bayern. There is no doubt that these are extremely interesting employers. We also have to wait and see what happens at Real Madrid, whether Ancelotti might quit sooner. As his agent, I wouldn’t necessarily advise him to go to Liverpool as Klopp’s successor. I would recommend that he stay in Leverkusen for another year or two and then maybe replace Ancelotti.”
