"Alonso is looking forward to being reunited with former Bayer Leverkusen stars Florian Wirtz and Jeremie Frimpong, while he has also requested the signing of Real Madrid attacking midfielder Arda Guler."
"Liverpool intend to convince the 20-year-old prodigy by offering him a very high salary and promising him a starting position after Guler was indispensable to Alonso in his early months at Real Madrid."
"Alonso also wants the Reds to sign Atletico Madrid defender Marc Pubill and Liverpool are preparing another XXL investment to improve the squad, as they did in 2025."
"Daily Mail journalist Lewis Steele insists that it is not true that Alonso has agreed to become the Liverpool head coach with the Reds currently backing Slot."
Xabi Alonso has requested two summer signings if he becomes Liverpool's head coach, potentially replacing Arne Slot. Slot's performance has declined, leaving Liverpool fifth in the Premier League and at risk of missing Champions League qualification. Alonso is reportedly close to an agreement with Liverpool and is eager to reunite with former Bayer Leverkusen players. He has specifically requested the signing of Real Madrid's Arda Guler and Atletico Madrid's Marc Pubill. Despite speculation, Alonso has not officially agreed to the position, as Liverpool continues to support Slot.
