Xabi Alonso’s arrival to Liverpool could help Barça to make a top signing
The Spanish coach’s exit from German football could have great consequences in Leverkusen
Bayer Leverkusen’s coach Xabi Alonso went under the spotlight in the last few hours after he was identified as the main option to replace Jürgen Klopp as the Liverpool manager once the German boss communicated his desire to leave the club at the end of the season, which could have great consequences in the market.
In this sense, while Liverpool evaluate the potential arrival of Alonso as a head coach in the summer, the possible exit of the Spanish strategist from Leverkusen could cause a massive exit of players in the German institution, given that the coach is the current leader of the project that have allowed several players to shine in German and European football.
One of those players would be the German 20-year-old young star Florian Wirtz, strongly targeted by FC Barcelona in the last few months, who could see how the main team in his team starts a new challenge outside of Leverkusen, which could make the player willing to follow Alonso steps according to the Catalan journal Sport.
The Culers could face a massive competence from City for the player
Following these sources, FC Barcelona’s board headed by Deco would be currently attentively monitoring the latest events happening around Leverkusen, as Wirtz would be one of the top desires of the Culers for the summer transfer market, where they could face a massive war with Manchester City to grant the player’s arrival to their team.
