Xabi Alonso, a 44-year-old former head coach of Real Madrid, is currently the most coveted free agent in football. His brief tenure at Real Madrid ended after a series of conflicts with players, despite an impressive start. Alonso's reputation remains intact due to his success with Bayer Leverkusen, where he led the team to a historic Bundesliga title. Clubs like Manchester United and Chelsea are considering him for managerial positions, while Liverpool's current manager retains support from the club's hierarchy.
"Xabi Alonso's coaching career took a tumultuous turn at Real Madrid, where he won 10 of his first 11 games before conflicts with senior players led to his departure. Despite this setback, his reputation as a tactical genius remains strong, especially after leading Bayer Leverkusen to a historic Bundesliga title in 2024."
"Football pundit Alan Pardew has suggested that Manchester United should consider hiring Alonso as their next manager, emphasizing the financial advantages of appointing a free agent. He noted that if Alonso is not going to Liverpool, United should seize the opportunity to bring him on board."
