Why Xabi Alonso Is The Next SUPERSTAR Manager! | Explained
Спорт
A cultured and elegant midfielder best remembered for his metronomic long distance passing and cannon esque ball striking, Xabi Alonso’s playing career was a thing of beauty.
Born in the Basque country he rose through the ranks of his boyhood club Real Sociedad, and went on to represent Liverpool, Real Madrid and Bayern Munich, winning an extraordinary 13 club honours to compliment his World Cup and Euros medals with his beloved Spain.
Now in his first management role with Bayer Leverkusen after a 3-year crash course with Real Sociedad B, he is looking as comfortable in the dugout as he did in heated midfield battles against the best players of his generation.
His Die Werkself side have risen from 17th to 7th, wowed crowds with their attacking play and reached their first European semi-final in 21 years.
Linked with a host of clubs this summer including Spurs and Real Madrid, it surely won’t be long before one of Europe’s elites comes knocking.
So, without further ado, welcome back to Explained, this is how Xabi Alonso TRANSFORMED Bayer Leverkusen!

Always knew Xabi would make a decent manager. Hope he takes his time. Suspect he will end up at either Liverpool or Real imho

They did one on Graham Potter at Chelsea and how he transformed them, then deleted it after his sacking 😂😂
Great to see legend gets coaching right.
future liverpool manager for sure!
Starting to worry about Callum H-A. Another period without getting played. His still young, but loads of managers won't use the kid. He may need a settled club and a manager who isn't likely to be sacked months after CH-A arrives at the club.

I think we all knew that Xabi would become a coach/manager after he retires! One of the most high IQ players ever in football! To me, he was the closest to Zidane after Zizou's retirement!
Very interesting
Next Liverpool manager plz
Ha tenido un comienzo muy ilusionante espero que siga con esa progresión y logre conseguir situarse entre los mejores dt en Europa consiguiendo títulos importantes

At right time.. He should come to Liverpool .. his long lost love😀
He be a wonderful manager given so time he's always proofing it great video
He'll have ripened gorgeously and just in time to come home to his beloved Liverpool👊 Say in about 4/5 years
Prime candidate to replace Klopp @ Anfield
As good as Wirtz is Palacios has the keys. The fact he isnt even mentioned in this video, when even Alonso talks about Exequiel more than about any other player proves what I've suspected for a long time: football daily have a bias agains either South American or Argentinean players, and don't watch games.

Wtf are you talking about? Palacios is the weak spot of Leverkusen midfield.
I honestly feel like he should join Real in 2024 because let’s be honest Carlo isn’t a development manager and he’ll bring new ideas into that team.

He will replace klopp when he retires ❤
I hope he stays at leverkusen for atleast 2 szns
Real Madrid is waiting for him.

Roma have Jose Mourinho in the dugout. That only says that Xabi needs some time coaching a good club before becoming one of the greats. Mou started at Porto, Klopp at Mainz, few ever start at a big club.
