Liverpool FC: “Xabi is outstanding” – Klopp raves about Alonso. Klopp will be leaving Liverpool FC at the end of the season.
Bayer Leverkusen coach Xabi Alonso is considered his successor. Alonso played for the Reds from 2004 to 2009 and won the Champions League in 2005. He is the favorite to succeed Klopp for many media in England, but Klopp assured that his praise was independent of that.. The football he plays, the teams he fields, the transfers he makes – it’s absolutely extraordinary.
