According to Foot Mercato , Xabi Alonso has a clear preference for becoming the next Liverpool manager over joining Bayern Munich.
Both clubs have an attachment to their former player who has proven himself to be one of the most interesting managers to emerge in recent years. His time at Bayer Leverkusen has been a revelation for the club, and they remain unbeaten this season under the Basque manager.
Liverpool and Bayern have begun to mount a behind-the-scenes race to appoint Alonso at the end of the season . However, it appears that Liverpool might have the edge over their rivals in acquiring the next exciting managerial figure.
Alonso is thought to prefer a move to Liverpool over Bayern where he considers the challenge of replacing Jürgen Klopp at the end of the season to be an interesting challenge.
Whilst, the role at Bayern has in recent years begun to resemble a poisoned chalice, as the general instability at the club has left very capable managers stumbling for results, with Thomas Tuchel becoming the latest to be fired after he failed to lift the German giants from their malaise.
