Potential Bundesliga Return for Alonso

Frankfurt’s Coaching Search

Recent reports from Germany hint that Xabi Alonso may be poised for a comeback in the Bundesliga, a league where he previously enjoyed great success with Bayer Leverkusen. In the past day, Eintracht Frankfurt has released head coach Dino Toppmoller, and Alonso is among those under consideration to take on the managerial role.

Alonso as a Preferred Candidate

According to sources, Frankfurt’s sporting director Markus Krösch views Alonso as an excellent fit for the position. He plans to engage in discussions with the 44-year-old to gauge his interest in stepping into the role immediately.

Alonso’s Achievements and Current Stance

It’s important to note that Alonso might feel he has already accomplished everything he set out to achieve in Germany, at least for now. Within 18 months, he transformed a struggling Leverkusen team into champions, making it unlikely he would be eager to take on the challenge at Frankfurt.

Future Opportunities Across Europe

Looking beyond Germany, there may be other prospects for Alonso in the future. His former club, Liverpool, could find themselves needing a new manager if Arne Slot is unable to improve the situation at Anfield. Additionally, he might be considered to succeed Pep Guardiola at Manchester City when Guardiola decides to depart.
