Liverpool continue to be linked with a managerial move for Xabi Alonso who is leading Bayer Leverkusen to a historic first Bundesliga title
Bayer Leverkusen goalkeeper Lukas Hradecky has revealed Xabi Alonso's meticulous planning represents the "real secret" behind his managerial success. Leverkusen are closing in on their first-ever Bundesliga title and are currently ten points clear at the top of the table with only eight matches remaining in the campaign.
Liverpool are of course on the lookout for a new permanent manager to replace Jurgen Klopp and will have to battle it out to secure the services of the Spaniard. Brighton boss Roberto De Zerbi and Sporting's Ruben Amorim are two of the other favourites for the position. "You guys don't see him on a daily basis but the atmosphere he’s brought in Leverkusen - we didn’t have it before - I think it comes from the way he has experienced football.
It remains to be seen what happens as regards the future of the 42-year-old as Europe's biggest clubs circle for the Leverkusen coach, who is under contract until 2026. Making clear he would not be angered if Alonso chooses to depart this summer, Hradecky added: "That’s our wish and dream . Of course, no-one would be angry or argue if he wins the Bundesliga and decides to go another route. There’s going to be another open post in the coach’s spot.
