Liverpool Football Club's position on Xabi Alonso has been clarified.
Idman.Biz reports that the Merseyside representative did not seriously consider the Spanish specialist as a possible replacement for Arne Slot due to a matter of principle.
According to reports, the Liverpool management wanted to see Alonso as head coach after Jurgen Klopp's departure in 2024. However, the Spanish specialist, who was then in charge of Bayer Leverkusen, rejected this option and preferred to wait for an offer from Real Madrid.
It is for this reason that the club's management did not now consider the Alonso option among the main candidates. Liverpool chose to continue working with Slot, despite the difficult season.
Xabi Alonso was appointed head coach of the English football club Chelsea yesterday.
The Spanish specialist has signed a contract with the London representative until the summer of 2030. His activities at Chelsea will begin on July 1.
