Famous European clubs have started taking the first steps in the fight for Leverkusen's "Bayer" coach Xabi Alonso.

Journalist Santi Aouna and "Foot Mercato" report that the 42-year-old Spaniard received a call from the "Liverpool" team.

The "Reds" dream that the specialist who demonstrates miracles in the Bundesliga will become the successor to Jurgen Klopp, who is leaving after the season.

However, X. Alonso himself is not in a hurry to make promises and does not want to prematurely please any team.

As the coach said, his priority is to finish the current season as successfully as possible and only then make plans for the future.
